A Fabulous Vintage SPHINX rhodium plated necklace, encrusted with sparkling marcasites. A wonderful Art Deco revival piece, with marcasite studded scrolls which go all the way around to the clasp. All of the stones are present and sparkling. The necklace is rhodium plated, which is a metal of the platinum family, used on high end costume jewellery to prevent tarnishing. It is still wonderfully shiny even now. Signed ‘Sphinx’ on an oval cartouche on the reverse. In fact this one is signed in triplicate, as it’s also signed with the Design No: 7313, along with the Arrow symbol in several places, which was also used by Sphinx.
Such a beautiful and classic piece – highly sought after and collectable.
Sphinx was an English Costume Jewellery Designer and Manufacturer, established in 1948 in London. They were famous for their exquisitely designed high-end pieces with fabulous rhinestones, which looked just like the real thing. They made jewellery for Kenneth Jay Lane, Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales, Saks 5th Ave, etc. Therefore, many of their pieces were not signed. This is one of the rare signed pieces.
Looks Fabulous When It Catches The Light! Particularly artificial light.
Measures: 16.25″ or 41.5cm
in Excellent Original Vintage Condition
