A striking vintage Givenchy necklace featuring a substantial, richly textured gold-tone mesh design finished with an oversized toggle closure and brilliant heart-shaped crystal pendant.
The thick, flexible mesh creates a beautifully sculptural silhouette around the neckline, while the front toggle closure becomes an intentional part of the design. Suspended beneath is a large faceted clear crystal heart with a reflective foil backing that catches and reflects the light beautifully.
The combination of bold gold-tone mesh, architectural hardware, and romantic heart-shaped crystal gives this necklace the unmistakable statement quality associated with vintage Givenchy jewelry.
The piece is signed Givenchy and remains in excellent vintage condition.
