Vintage 5 Strand Faux Pearl Necklace-Rice Beads-Gold Tone Clasp-Multi-Choker-80s

Elegant 5-strand faux pearl necklace with softly lustrous, rice-shaped beads accented by tiny gold-tone stations and a matching gold-tone box clasp featuring an Asian “longevity” motif. Length 18"; beads approx. 6×4 mm; substantial 62.9 g feel. Multi-strand pearl looks have been style icons since Chanel popularized faux pearls in the 1920s; this piece reflects the bold layered pearl trend of the 1980s–1990s, when quality fashion jewelry was widely produced for American boutiques by East-Asian workshops. Likely late-20th century (c. 1985–1995). A timeless choice for bridal, cocktail, or classic everyday polish. Condition: very good vintage; light surface wear from gentle use, clasp secure, no missing beads, no maker’s mark. See photos.
