    Was invited to a house to purchase items.
    This was a necklace the seller decided to keep.
    The gold color was very vibrant, and the green glass very nice. I at first thought peridot and gold wash. I didn't get a chance to handle or inspect it. I asked her to send me pictures. I see now from the clasp and earring backs that it is not as high end costume as I at first thought.

    Would like to pinpoint the time period. If anyone recognizes the workmanship as belonging to a particular company, or where to look that would be helpful.
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Are you sure that's a set? They don't share design elements. Also don't appear to be from same era. Necklace looks 1960s but earring backs typically 1950s.

    No, can only say that the glass was the same color. As was the gold color, neither were that brassy look some costume jewelry has. That's why I thought possibly gold washed/plated.
    I see now what you are saying about the design elements.
    I really didn't get a chance to inspect them. She said she wanted to keep those and pulled them from what I was looking at.

    There was a lot to see besides the jewelry and I was limited in time.
    I just knew that I liked the look of it, and told her not to sell it until it was looked at by someone.

    No need. Both are 1960s costume, if nice 60s costume. It might have been grandma's favorite necklace however, and there's no gold necklace to compete with Grandma.

    Thanks that was my thought as well. Just wasn't positive.
