Multi-Faceted Yellow Stone Statement Necklace

This is a statement necklace featuring several large, faceted yellow stones set in a silver-toned metal. The necklace is constructed with a combination of thick, curb-style chain links and decorative oval links. The chain portion appears to be made of a base metal, likely an alloy, with a silver-colored plating or finish, possibly rhodium or nickel, given its somewhat matte luster. It measures an estimated 16-18 inches in length due to the visible extender chain at the clasp, which is a standard lobster claw type. The yellow stones are dominant features, appearing to be made of acrylic, glass, or a similar synthetic material due to their uniform color, clarity, and lack of inclusions typically found in natural gemstones. They are cut with various facets, giving them a brilliant, reflective quality. There are two hexagonal-shaped yellow stones positioned higher on the necklace, flanking a larger, elongated hexagonal or rectangular stone positioned centrally and lower. The stones are bezel-set, meaning they are surrounded by a thin metal rim. Between the two upper yellow stones and the lower central stone are two textured, silver-toned oval links. These links have a ribbed or rope-like texture, adding visual interest and a slight contrast to the smoother surface of the chains and stone settings. The overall condition appears good with no obvious signs of significant damage such as missing stones or broken links, although there might be minor surface scratches or wear commensurate with gentle use. The metal shows a consistent finish without notable tarnishing or discoloration, suggesting reasonable care or a resilient plating. The design is modern contemporary, likely dating from the 2000s or later, and indicative of fashion jewelry.
