Tortoise Shell Necklace in Sterling Silver c.1930

Tortoiseshell jewellery remained popular into the early 20th century for its warm natural colouring and light weight, often paired with silver fittings to create practical and wearable pieces. This necklace dates to around 1930 and is 45cm long, weighing 7.39g, with sterling silver fittings marked for silver content. The tortoiseshell displays the rich amber and dark tones associated with the material, giving the necklace a soft and organic appearance. Finished with a practical and easy-to-operate clasp, it sits comfortably for regular wear while retaining the distinctive character of period jewellery.
