ABOUT THIS NECKLACE

We've never seen anything quite like this celestial jewel by the American jewelry manufacturer of yesteryear, Allsopp-Steller (est.1938). Centering on a luminous high-domed moonstone, set atop a bright glossy blue guilloche enamel disc and orbited all around by 18 smaller moonstones, all of which suspend from a larger moonstone, this supernal adornment will light up any room. Hand fabricated in 14K gold. It measures 1 1/4 inch diameter, and 2 inches to the top moonstone. The chain measures 16 inches.

About Retro Jewelry

Hollywood glam got creative during the war era, when strategic factors forced jewelers to do without certain materials. Rather than scale back, they took the streamlined shapes of the Art Deco and went big, bold, and gold with them! Retro power pieces segued from the Jazz Age to the Fabulous Fifties, creating many motifs of vintage jewelry along the way.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
