Description from the seller
For sale is a beautiful, elegant ladies' choker from the traditional Italian jewelry manufactory Fratelli Chini (Arezzo, Italy).
The noble piece comes from an inheritance from a family-owned estate and is a rare vintage classic from around the 1970s.
It impresses with its timeless two-tone design and its first-class, solid craftsmanship.
Material: 18 karat yellow gold & white gold (fineness 750 repeatedly stamped/punched throughout)
Setting: 2 diamonds/brilliants in the white-gold center of the mid-section
Weight: Massively approx. 14 grams
Length: approx. 41.5 cm (classic, close-to-the-neck fit)
Design: High-quality, supple Omega braided band with integrated V-center piece
Clasp: Secure lobster clasp with the protected patent engraving “Brev.”
Condition: Very good, well-kept and age-appropriate condition with a beautiful shine.
Manufacturer & age verification:
The collier bears the official Italian maker’s mark “Star 219 AR” as well as the protected brand name “Chini R” on the clasp and the punches on the back of the centerpiece. The combination of the typical post-1968 star mark and the iconic design confirms authentic origin from the famous jewelry city Arezzo and reliable dating to the 1970s. The shipment is sent exclusively via a specialized high-value transport to fully secure the high value.
