Carol Lee Vintage Elegant Gold Beaded Rope Necklace - Women Jewelry

The marking Carol Lee (often seen as "Carolee") identifies this as a piece of vintage designer costume jewelry. Founded in 1972, the brand became a staple in high-end department stores like Bloomingdale’s, known for creating high-quality "faux" jewelry that mimicked the look of real pearls and solid gold. Item Details Design: This is a multi-strand beaded collar or choker, a signature style for the brand during the 1980s and 90s. Materials: While it has a brilliant golden finish, it is typically made of gold-plated metal or high-quality gold-tone alloy rather than solid gold. The beads are often acrylic or glass coated with a metallic finish.
