A gothic statement choker necklace featuring an authentic late Victorian French Jet (deep black glass) rosette centerpiece, dating to circa 1870. The centerpiece features a carved classical lady profile cameo surrounded by a halo of faceted black glass stones mounted on a dark backing plate. The antique French Jet focal piece is strung on a soft black velvet ribbon. The reverse allows the ribbon to glide through the rear metal channel, ensuring the weight stays balanced. Finished with dark silver-toned ribbon crimps, a lobster claw clasp, and an extension chain for an adjustable fit. Very good reconstructed condition. The antique French Jet glass centerpiece is intact and securely mounted, showing natural age-related tarnish and oxidation on the reverse metal plate. The velvet ribbon is fresh and unworn, and the clasp and extension chain operate smoothly.
