CONDITION = Great vintage condition - no damage or quirks found to mention on the pendant necklace. The box is nicely intact - but has a bit of an old item odor. It will of course be included for provenance and protection in shipping. It very well may air or or clean up - I haven't tried. Small white scuff on the top which also looks like it would clean up with the right attention. Rare find in an excellent state of preservation
"A picture is worth a thousand words"
Please view & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged and not mentioned. Individuals do have varying levels of desire and tolerance for "vintage charm" so do utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all, as they are an extension and integral part and of the description.
