Rare 1940s Coro Pegasus Signed Tubogas Sleek Coil Collar Necklace Vintage Coro Pegasus necklace nearing the 100 year old mark! Quite old and only going to get older Condition is good - there is some wear on the clasp (fading/tarnishing) and some dullness to the silver tone. Clasp works great Weight 19g A tubogas necklace is a flexible, coiled metal necklace made using a technique that resembles tightly wound gas pipes—hence the name tubogas (Italian for “gas pipe”). No soldering: It’s made by wrapping two long metal strips around a core (often a wire), which is later removed. The result is a smooth, flexible, and springy tube. Smooth, snake-like appearance: It lies flat against the skin and bends easily, giving it a sleek, modern look. Often used in jewelry from the 1940s onwards
