Crown Trifari Modernist Golden Necklace
This vintage Trifari choker necklace has a modernist style. The chain is made up of three widths of elongated textured links, accented by smaller square pieces that have a smooth metal finish with a slightly domed shape. The finished look is very chic and refined.
The main necklace measures 37cm in length plus there's an extension piece which adds a further 2cms of length.
Signed 'Trifari ©' with crown over the T on each clasp. The copyright symbol dates this to post 1955 and I'd say the modernist look of it puts it in the 1960s.
Trifari
Trifari was started in the early 1900s by an Italian immigrant to America, Gustavo Trifari.
Trifari were the first company to copyright their jewellery designs, doing so after a drawn out legal battle with another costume jewellery design company, Coro.
They patented their own non-tarnishing metal, Trifanium, which is why so many of their pieces survive in such excellent condition.

How do you rate the condition of a piece?
Excellent - No visible flaws to note but items may exhibit some signs of age related wear
Very Good - Some visible flaws which aren't considered to impair the wearability of the piece
Good - Some more notable flaws but the piece is still in collectible condition
All items are vintage and have lived a previous life, therefore signs of age related wear are to be expected. I do my best to bring attention to any faults in the description and by using the condition scale.
