Vintage Panetta Pendant with Amethyst Glass
This vintage necklace pendant was made by Panetta, probably in the 1980s. Panetta costume jewellery is synonymous with quality and their designs often had the look of fine jewellery, as does this rhinestone encrusted pendant.
The pendant is in great condition. The raised amethyst glass central gem is surrounded by clear rhinestones, all set in gold plated metal. The bale is decorated with clear baguette crystals which graduate in size.
The bale fastens with a hinged clasp which allows the pendant to be fitted onto most chain sizes. It could even be fastened between beads or pearls.
It is stamped 'PANETTA' on the back of the pendant.
Panetta
The Panetta company of New York was founded in 1945 by Beneditto Panetta. An Italian immigrant, he had been a jeweler in his former home of Naples, Italy. Panetta jewellery is very collectable due to the fine quality, attention to detail and the limited numbers produced.
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.
