Vintage 1955 Coro Pegasus Signed Gold-Tone Textured Leaf Collar Choker Necklace
Up for sale is a beautiful, highly collectible piece of authentic mid-century costume jewelry from the iconic maker, Coro. This particular piece is a fascinating historical crossover item for serious collectors.
Collector's Hallmark Details:
The reverse end-link features layered mid-century hallmarks. Under magnification, you can identify the vertical "DES. PAT. PEND." stamp accompanied by the early post-1955 copyright symbol (©). It features Coro's dual branding signatures from this exact transitional year: the classic diagonal "Coro" script name alongside the rectangular-boxed "Coro" block text flanked by the stamped flying Pegasus emblem.
Design Features:
• Construction: Articulated link construction designed with multi-dimensional, overlapping textured leaf links that elegantly drape along the collarbone.
• Extension Chain: Suspends a decorative metal pinecone/acorn finial drop charm at the end of the adjustable chain tail.
• Clasp: Features a secure and working vintage gold-tone J-hook style connector.
Sizing:
• Total Adjustable Length: Approx. 16 inches max length (including the extension chain tail).
• Width: Approx. 0.75 inches across the main leaf vintage condition! The gold-tone plating remains exceptionally bright, rich, and uniform across the front face. The reverse features very light, standard age-appropriate wear/patina spots near the links, which is typical for true 1950s metalware. No broken components; the articulation flows beautifully and lays completely flat when worn.
