Western-Style 'Cowgirl' Padded Necklace with Rhinestones

This is a contemporary Western-style statement necklace featuring a prominent circular pendant suspended from a beaded and braided cord. The pendant is crafted from a silver-toned base metal, likely a zinc alloy, and is intricately decorated with a rope-textured border and floral filigree scrollwork. It features the word 'Cowgirl' in a cursive, raised script across the center, accented with numerous clear pave-set rhinestones that provide a high-contrast sparkle. Above the word, there is a small silhouette design, possibly representing a heart or butterfly. The necklace strap is constructed from a thick, black braided material (likely synthetic leather or cord) that transitions into a beaded section. This section includes six large, polished black spherical beads, separated by decorative, antique-finish silver-toned spacer rings. The overall construction suggests a mass-produced fashion jewelry piece, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century. The condition appears good with no visible missing stones, though there is minor surface oxidation or patina on the metal spacers. The piece lacks an obvious maker's mark in the photograph, fitting the profile of 'Western Chic' boutique accessories.
