The listing, Vintage Carol Dauplaise Necklace has ended.
This necklace is signed 'Dauplaise'. It is long, a bit over 15" including the pendant. The pendant is wood and a man-made material and the round beads are made of the same material. I think the smaller beads are also wood. This necklace would look great with a turtleneck sweater or any other sweater actually. The pendant itself is about 3-1/4" in diameter. A striking piece!
