    Looking for rough age of this, is it Czech or just trying to be?

    How long is it? Those backs could be Czech, but also German.

    Gorgeous, and probably Czech.
    It isn't filigree btw, it is dye stamped.
    Filigree is hand made from metal wires, and each wire started out as a very thin single wire.
    The components of this necklace started out as metal plates, and the pattern was stamped from the metal plate.

    I know some sellers call this filigree in spite of the lack of wires. But as we know, sellers are often clueless.;)

    Just asking. I know AJ is correct that this is not filigree. I have several pieces similar- What would be the correct term to describe in a listing besides dye stamped.

    Stamped or pressed are proper enough terms.

    You might want to check, the U.K. spelling would be Die Stamping.

    In that case stamped is the safest term.

    The length is about right for between the two wars.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    I'm pretty sure that is also the correct U. S. spelling.
