Description: This exquisite, high quality 14k gold paperclip chain antique necklace from 1915 has two hand carved and pierced lapis lazuli oval stones - one serves as a centerpiece and the other as a pendant. The 3/4" wide centerpiece is in a gold frame and the 1" long pendant has a leaf shaped gold bail. The 16 1/2" long paperclip link chain has two round lapis beads and there are gold beads as well. The spring ring clasp is the old pre-1920s style without the thumb catch. It is marked 14k and the necklace is in excellent mint condition - looks like it was rarely worn, if ever.It was found in a very old, wealthy Pennsylvania country estate and a note was found in the original box with the necklace, and will be included. It reads, "14k gold & lapis necklace, Helen's wedding present from Del Castillo family, daughter Alice was W.W.S. Sr godchild. The Del Castillos were old business friends from Cartegena, Columbia".0147
