c1930 Horace Welch Floating Opal Lariat Necklace

c1930 Horace Welch Floating Opal Lariat Necklace

The original floating opal pendant, created by engineer-turned-jeweler Horace Welch in the 1920s! We've seen it imitated since his patent expired in the 1970s, but there is nothing quite like the original. This one is in the form of a lariat with details that evoke the Egyptian revival of the deco period. Set in 14k gold, it is sure to inspire awe and wonder for years to come. The chain measures 15 1/2 inches long with the drops adding 2 1/4 inches.
