Very hard to find black jet vintage plastic Victorian - Art Nouveau transitional woman pendant necklace, a classic look and style that's particularly elegant when you can find it in the black jet. Jet is the black fossilized wood of a particular tree that grew millions of years ago. It is particularly associated with the English town of Whitby where much of it was fashioned into jewelry and accessories. While jet was made into jewelry throughout the 1800's, it was especially fashionable between 1860 and 1915. The pendant has engraved scroll markings on the back, and the detail of the woman is extraordinarily fine even for the high quality work typical of this period. It's in excellent condition with pendant measuring 2.25" x 1.75" and moveable ball on the necklace to allow for shortening or lengthening depending on how you choose to wear it.
