14k Gold and Sapphire Chevron V-Necklace

This is a vintage 14k yellow gold herringbone flat-link chain necklace, featuring a prominent V-shaped or chevron-style centerpiece. The focal point is a stylized 'V' set with a row of circular-cut gemstones, identified by the user as sapphires. Though they appear light in the photo, likely due to reflection or a white-gold/platinum setting, they are channel or pavé-set to create a continuous line of brilliance. The necklace is constructed with a flexible, flat-woven herringbone chain that provides a high-polish reflective surface typical of Italian goldsmithing. Given the context of its 14k gold hallmark and Italian origin, it represents a classic 1980s or 1990s aesthetic known for bold, flat gold silhouettes. The clasp mechanism appears to be a traditional box clasp with a safety catch, suggesting a high standard of security and craftsmanship. The visible condition shows slight kinking in the herringbone links near the chevron junction, which is a common stress point for this type of delicate weave, and some surface patina congruent with age. The overall construction displays excellent symmetry and a fluid drape designed to rest flat against the collarbone.
