Vintage three-strand necklace from around the 1950s, composed of faceted AB crystal beads of varying sizes. Each bead has been precisely cut from clear crystal with an aurora borealis finish that reflects iridescent hues. The design includes a rectangular clasp decorated with rhinestones set in silver-plated metal and an integrated safety chain.
This type of necklace was very popular in the 1950s and 1960s, especially among high-end jewelry brands such as Coro Laguna and Lisner. The AB finish was developed by Swarovski in collaboration with Dior in 1956 and marked a revolution in jewelry design.
Perfect for complementing a cocktail dress or as a collector's item, this necklace evokes postwar glamour and the fascination with artificial glitter characteristic of mid-century American fashion. An ideal gift for a woman or a great addition to your vintage jewelry collection.

What you are buying (important)
We sell antique and vintage items. These are not new or recently manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, minor losses, or variations inherent to the passage of time. These characteristics are part of their nature and are not considered defects. We recommend carefully reviewing the photographs, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm a specific detail before purchasing, please contact us.
Photos and color
The photographs are taken under artificial light. For this reason, the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is critical for you, we can send you additional photos taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the actual color.
Patina and cleaning
Many pieces develop a patina over time. We don't remove it, as it's a natural process that can take decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the piece's aesthetic value and character.
If you decide to clean or polish, do so carefully and with the material in mind. The buyer should make this decision, as cleaning can affect the appearance, authenticity, and, in some cases, the value. If you need cleaning instructions based on the material, please contact us and we'll guide you.
