Walter Mercado inspired ruby collet will truly leave you breathless. The large sized vintage ruby oval stones are set crown settings; golden against the perfect, deep red ruby colored glass. Rubies are also the birthstone for July and for the Cancer Zodiac.
It is adjustable from 16 to 19". Finished with a simple glass red colored drop.
Stone size is 25x18mm, or about 1" wide by 3/4".
I created this necklace from vintage settings and stones; polished and hand set each stone and joined them with high quality findings from France. It is entirely handmade.
An extraordinary and unforgettable necklace that will have people talking about it long after the party is over! Mucho Mucho Amore!
Other colors are available. SInce vintage stones like this come and go, please Message me to see which are available at this time.

Sizing details

Need your piece smaller or larger? I'm always happy to size your pieces larger or smaller at no extra cost.

Do you use real gemstones?

The stones that I use are vintage and antique rhinestones that are not reclaimed from other vintage pieces. I use a finite supply of what is called "New Old Stock" glass rhinestones and Swarovski crystals ranging from the early 1900's to the 1980's. Some are extremely rare and precious!

Do your necklaces contain nickel or lead?

I use solid brass that is specially coated for my gold pieces. For my silver pieces, I use triple plated silver over solid brass.
For my antiqued pieces, I use solid brass that has a special antiqued coating that does not contain nickel or lead.

My earwires are always nickel and lead free!

*A note about my assemblage work.
I cannot guarantee that the chain and elements I use in my assemblage pieces are nickel and lead free. Sometimes I use vintage elements that may bother very sensitive skin types.

This breathtakingly beautiful necklace arrived today. As soon as I put in on, I felt like a character out of a Jane Austin's novel...thank you for creating such a special piece Jennifer! This is one necklace that I will take with me on all my future traveling trips abroad.
