Vintage 1970s-80s Sterling Silver and Golden Mother of Pearl Fringe Bib Necklace

This distinctive artisan necklace features rare golden-yellow mother of pearl teardrops in a graduated fringe design. Prized for its warm, luminous hue and satiny finish, golden MOP is a luxurious variety far less common than standard white mother of pearl. The hand-crafted piece showcases beautiful oxidized sterling silver with wheat chain construction and beaded spine detail, characteristic of 1970s-1980s modernist jewelry aesthetics. Each glowing teardrop cabochon is individually bezeled in darkened silver, creating dramatic contrast with the lustrous golden stones.
