Crystal Swan Pendant Appraisal

Clear Crystal Swan Pendant Necklace

This item is a necklace featuring a clear, possibly crystal or glass, swan-shaped pendant. The pendant is crafted to resemble a swan with its neck gracefully arched and its body displaying a slightly textured or 'cracked ice' appearance within the clear material, which provides depth and catches light. The swan appears to be solid and translucent, allowing light to pass through. The pendant is attached to a necklace chain composed of numerous small, clear, faceted beads, likely made of crystal or glass, strung together to form a continuous strand. The beads are uniform in size and spherical or bicone in shape, providing sparkle along the entire length of the chain. The overall color of the necklace is clear and colorless, giving it a delicate and elegant aesthetic. The attachment point of the pendant to the chain appears to be a simple loop integrated into the design of the swan's neck, which connects to the bead strand. The condition of the necklace appears good from the image, with no obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear visible on the pendant or the beads. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures from the provided image, making it difficult to ascertain specific manufacturing details or a precise age. The style suggests a decorative or costume jewelry piece, possibly from the late 20th century to contemporary, emphasizing a clean and luminous look. The craftsmanship appears to be of decent quality, with a well-formed swan figure and evenly strung beads. The textile background it rests upon suggests a rich, textured fabric but is not part of the item itself.
