1950s Canadian Rhinestone Choker Swag Necklace Silver Tone & Aus

This exquisite mid-century "swag" necklace is a quintessential example of high-quality Canadian costume jewelry from the 1950s. Designed to sit perfectly at the collarbone, it features a sophisticated double-strand drape that leads to a central teardrop crystal pendant. Unlike modern reproductions, this piece has a substantial weight (18g) and features hand-set stones in a bright silver-tone finish. It embodies the "Montreal Glamour" style popularized by icons of the era. Whether for a mid-century inspired bride or a collector of high-end Canadian jewelry, this piece offers timeless elegance. Origin: Canada Era: mid-1950s Style: Swag / Festoon Choker Length: 15.25 inches Width: 4mm (chain) Weight: 18 grams Materials: High-grade Austrian glass rhinestones, rhodium-plated base metal Condition: Excellent Condition. The silver-tone plating remains remarkably bright and crisp with no "greying" or significant pitting. All rhinestones are original, clear, and securely held in their prong settings. The fold-over clasp is firm and functions perfectly. As an authentic mid-century item roughly 70 years old, it shows only the slightest micro-wear visible under magnification, consistent with careful occasional use.
