Resin Bolo Tie Appraisal

Modernist Sunburst bolo tie necklace

This contemporary bolo-style necklace features a prominent sunburst or starburst centerpiece. The central element is a large, square-cut synthetic gemstone or crystal in a deep teal or sapphire blue hue, secured within a silver-toned metallic frame. Surrounding the center stone are radiating spikes, each accented at the base with small, aurora borealis (AB) finished iridescent crystals that reflect a rainbow of colors including yellow, pink, and light blue. The 'tie' portion consists of a double-strand, flat-link silver-toned chain, which is characteristic of modern costume jewelry designs from the late 20th to early 21st century. The ends of the chain are finished with elongated, teardrop-shaped metal aglets. The construction appears to be high-quality base metal with a polished silver finish. No prominent maker's marks are visible in the primary view; however, the clasp mechanism at the end indicates an adjustable length. The condition appears excellent with no missing stones or significant tarnishing, though some minor surface scratches on the metal are typical for pre-owned jewelry. Its design blends elements of Southwestern bolo ties with glam rock and avant-garde fashion aesthetics.
