Description
Vintage SPHINX Arrow SIGNED Marcasite Choker Necklace Mid Century Art Deco Style. Wedding Party Ball. Red Carpet Event. Bridgerton Jewellery. Present Gift.
Art Deco Revival, Circa 1950’s
A beautiful Vintage SPHINX rhodium plated choker necklace, encrusted with sparkling marcasites. A wonderful Art Deco revival piece. 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, but there is some wear to the metal parts at the joints, commensurate with age. Signed with an Arrow on the reverse, which was a symbol used by Sphinx.
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.
Looks Fabulous When It Catches The Light! Particularly artificial light.
A Short Size Choker Necklace, which rests on the collar bone and hangs beautifully at the throat. Please measure your neck to ensure a good fit.
Measures: 14.25″ or 36.5cm
in Good Vintage Condition
