Description

View Vintage Sterling Silver Abalone Teardrop Pendant (Mid-20th Century) with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. The bail allows necklace suspension, with minimal texture on the reverse for lightweight comfort. This is a mesmerizing mid-20th-century (circa 1950s–1970s) sterling silver (.925 purity) teardrop pendant, featuring a pear-shaped cabochon abalone shell (mother-of-pearl, ~1–2 carats, natural iridescent with blue-green-purple fire for dramatic schiller effect) bezel-set in a simple silver frame for secure hold and subtle shine. The bail allows necklace suspension, with minimal texture on the reverse for lightweight comfort. Measuring approximately 1 inch long x 0.5 inches wide, it weighs ~5–8 grams (lightweight for layering). Unsigned, but the clean bezel setting aligns with American or Bali-inspired production (e.g., boho style by firms like Coro or artisan imports). Condition: Excellent vintage, with even patina, secure bezel, no scratches or losses, and vibrant iridescence—ready for a chain or solo display. Condition: Pre-owned - Excellent.
