Made in the Deep South | 1950s Jeweled Leaf & Layered Chain Necklace

The peach, pink, and iridescent plum combination makes this one especially interesting. I’d pair it with a charcoal sweater or an open ivory shirt and let those cascading chains fill the neckline. You get the look of a beautifully collected necklace stack in one piece.

DESCRIPTION

Cascading gold-tone chains frame a richly detailed vintage centerpiece in this one-of-a-kind necklace from Made in the Deep South. Alternating chain styles and openwork spherical accents create graduated layers, leading to a colorful brooch reimagined as a pendant.

The centerpiece pairs softly frosted peach-colored cabochons with sculpted gold-tone foliage, small pink faceted accents, and three iridescent leaf-shaped elements. Their shifting pink, plum, and blue highlights bring an unexpected flash of color to the warm palette.

Both original components date to the 1950s. The brooch was sourced from a Florida estate, while the necklace came from a Washington estate. Reworked together, they create a statement with movement, dimension, and a distinctly individual history.

Wear it with a simple knit, an open shirt, or a clean-lined dress to show off the graduated chains and intricate pendant.

Only one available. The necklace pictured is the exact piece you will receive, accompanied by its individual Made in the Deep South story card.
