Rhinestone Cup Necklace marked 18k GP

This item is a vintage rhinestone cup chain lariat necklace, featuring a long, flexible design that can double as a wrap necklace or a decorative belt. While marked or designated as 18k GP (18-karat Gold Plated), this specific style typically uses a silver-tone or rhodium-plated base metal to secure the clear faceted crystal rhinestones. Because it is an extra-long 3-foot (36-inch) strand, it belongs to the opera or rope length category. This length allows it to be styled in multiple ways: worn long for a dramatic look, doubled up as a multi-strand choker, or tied into a decorative knot.
