Zoe Coste France Floral Necklace & Earrings
Gorgeous floral collar-style necklace in an orange, yellow and gold color scheme, features goldtone metal flowers (petals are lightly domed), each flower with a center glass "paperweight"--a glass domed cabochon, collet-set, with another flower inside. The effect is like the Victorian/Edwardian reverse-painted "goofus glass" pieces. The flowers are linked with coral-colored glass beads and round goldtone metal spacer beads. Each flower measures 1 1/2" diameter; total necklace length is approximately 18" with slide-in clasp. Matching clip earrings are also 1 1/2" diameter. Condition is excellent, although the Zoe Coste mark on the raised oval cartouche has been either worn or scraped off -- part of the name can still be seen, and "Made in France" is intact.
