This piece hails from the iconic Carolee brand, founded in 1972 and renowned for its high-quality costume jewelry that beautifully mimics the luster and iridescence of real pearls. Dating likely from the 1980s or 1990s, this necklace features 57 graduated dark pearls with multicolored overtones in shades of black, green, blue, and purple—giving them that exotic Tahitian vibe without the high price tag. Key details: • Length: 16 inches (choker style, sits beautifully at the base of the neck) • Pearls: 57 faux pearls (high-quality glass beads with iridescent coating), graduated sizes approximately 6-10mm • Stringing: Hand-knotted on durable black cord for added security and a classic look • Clasp: 925 sterling silver toggle clasp with a charming heart-shaped tag engraved “Carolee © 925” • Weight: Lightweight at 0.2 ounces (about 5.67 grams), making it comfortable for all-day wear • Condition: Good vintage condition with minor signs of wear—some light tarnish on the clasp (easily polished) and subtle surface imperfections on the pearls consistent with age. No major damage, breaks, or missing beads. The pearls have a realistic gritty texture and even leave a fine dust when gently rubbed together, showcasing Carolee’s attention to detail in simulating genuine pearls Condition: Pre-owned - Excellent.
