The necklace is crafted with multiple strands of beads, including crystal beads and brass elements. The design features alternating shades of gold, brown, and clear beads, giving it a rich, luxurious, and versatile aesthetic. The clasp is ornate and characteristic of the era, often detailed to complement the overall glamour of the piece. This necklace represents the mid-century trend of bold, statement jewelry with meticulous craftsmanship. The necklace is hall marked on the clasp and in very good condition overall. Coppola e Toppo is an iconic Italian jewelry brand, celebrated for its innovative and luxurious designs that defined mid-20th-century costume jewelry. The brand was founded in the late 1940s by siblings Lyda and Bruno Coppola in Milan, Italy. Their jewelry became synonymous with glamour, creativity, and craftsmanship, earning them a prestigious place in fashion history. Lyda Coppola, the creative visionary, started designing jewelry in the post-World War II era. Her goal was to create opulent, high-quality pieces that felt like fine jewelry but were accessible as costume jewelry. Lyda was joined by her brother Bruno, who managed the business side of their operations, allowing her to focus on design. Their big break came in the 1950s and 1960s when they began collaborating with leading fashion houses such as Christian Dior, Elsa Schiaparelli, Valentino, and Emilio Pucci. Coppola e Toppo's jewelry often adorned models on couture runways, solidifying the brand as a staple in the fashion world. less
