Vintage MCM La Mode Karatclad Nephrite Jade Gold Tone Rectangular Tie Tac

Vintage condition with gentle age-related wear, including light surface scratches on the gold tone finish and some natural texture showing in the nephrite jade. This vintage MCM La Mode Karatclad tie tac features a genuine green nephrite jade cabochon in a simple rectangular bezel setting. It’s stamped “LA MODE KARATCLAD,” which refers to their heavier, more durable gold electroplating made to look like real karat gold—thicker than standard plating but not solid gold or gold-filled. The jade measures around 6.9mm and has that classic mottled green look you expect from nephrite. It comes with the original clutch back and has that clean mid-century style that works great for collectors, jade fans, or anyone who likes a classic vintage tie accent. Reasonable offers considered
