Vintage faux pearl choker & bracelet set, sterling clasps

Click to enlarge image.

This is a faux pearl choker necklace and bracelet set, with 7mm pearls in a deep creamy color. Box insert clasps on both, stamped "Sterling," along with a stylized "S" after the word sterling. Please note that only the box end of the clasp is sterling; the insert end is not sterling. The necklace is 18" long, but designed to lay flat, so the outer strand is just a bit longer, and the width is one inch. The bracelet is 8" long x 1.25" wide; wearable lengths is 7.75" when fastened. Some tiny imperfections in the surface of the pearl beads up close, but these appear to be intrinsic to the surface, not flaws. The cord knots can be seen near the clasps. Some aging/yellowing in these knots. There are not individual knots in between each pearl bead on these two pieces. Some surface wear and tarnish on the clasps.
