Verified DeLizza & Elster for Avon Green Lucite Bolo Necklace – 1970s Book Piece | Private Collection | Betty Lily & Co.

A rare documented design by DeLizza & Elster crafted for Avon, reserved within my personal archive. This verified book piece features a luminous marbled green lucite cabochon framed in textured gold-tone metal, suspended from long beaded chains that form an elegant twin-tassel bolo drop. A standout example of D&E’s collaborations during the 1970s “Made for Others” era.

Measuring approximately 40 inches in total length (20-inch drop), this dramatic statement necklace delivers fluid movement and versatile styling — stunning layered or worn as the focal point. Signed “Avon” on the reverse of the centerpiece as documented in the DeLizza & Elster Jewelry Reference Guide.
