Product Description
Trifari "METEOR" Collection Necklace
APP. YEAR OF MANUFACTURING - 1949
Gold Plated metal with channel set with clear baguette rhinestones BACKMARKS - Trifari Crown without © symbol, PAT. PEND
Beautiful vintage condition, all stones present and brilliant, rhodium plated over gold plated metal finish is very good, better than identical necklaces I've run into over the years. Nice and bright with little to none of the light "spotting" consistently seen in these pieces.
Measures 14.25" long including the fold over clasp
Of interest is the design of the centerpiece in this necklace. Check out the photos above of the back this necklace and the back of the Art Deco brooch and compare them. The Art Deco, silver rhodium plated, channel set, clear rhinestones brooch (which I have for sale right now) looks very much like a Trifari piece but it is unsigned. However, the design and construction of it is very close to the construction of the centerpiece seen here in this necklace. I added comparison photos, Thought it would be fun to see them together and look at the similaraties in each design. Anyway, just a mystery of which there are many in this business, lol!
