Description

The listing, LOW START BID,GRAB IT RARE Vintage Edelweiss Choker Style Necklace Pendant Flower German Polish Old has ended.

Vintage Necklace

This auction is for a really nice and well made vintage necklace. It has a felt cloth choker style band and is adorned with an Edelweiss Embellishment. The choker measures about 14½" long but it can be made about 1" smaller depending on where you clasp it. Nice piece and in great condition!

This is the flower featured in "The Sound of Music"
Men would prove their love by going on a mission of the heart they only grow on the steep alps so it was nearly impossible. Any noble man that came home with one faced many dangers just to prove his love. There is even a song depicting the flower.

It usually grows in inaccessible places, which is why it is associated in Slovenia with mountaineering. Its white colour is considered in Switzerland a symbol of purity and due to its beauty, it obtained its Romanian name, floarea reginei (Queen's flower).

**GIN gets a small bonus surprise

Questions & Comments

Really lovely piece! You deserve bonus credits for the description! I'm a sucker for the story and this is a great one.I can"t wear chokers but if I could you'd have had me all in! Good Luck-but I don't think you'll have any trouble raking it in on this beauty. Oh great-now the 'Edelweiss' song is playing in my head....
