An exceptional vintage sterling silver filigree necklace set with two beautifully mottled green art glass cabochons. The upper stone has a soft chrysoprase-green appearance, while the lower cabochon displays a striking blue-green pattern.
Except for the spring-ring clasp, the necklace is hand-wrought, including its unusual filigree chain and elaborate pendant settings. The workmanship and glass closely resemble a signed Peruzzi bracelet and pendant acquired from the same estate. This necklace is unsigned; Peruzzi is referenced only as a style comparison, not as a confirmed maker attribution.
