Yves Saint Laurent 1970s Faux Silver and Horn Vintage Resin Beaded Necklace

This exceptionally rare and shimmering necklace was created in the 1930s. It was most likely made in France. 

Condition Report:

Good -  There is some loss of coating to some of the faux pearls. In some places, this has resulted in a darkening to the surface of the pearls. This does not detract from the rarity and wearability of the piece, especially as the darkening makes the pearls look like grey or black pearls rather than obviously flawed.
