Vintage 50" Pearl Necklace – Cropp & Farr 9ct Gold Clasp, Birmingham 1967

1940 - 1960
Description

Vintage Cropp & Farr Long Pearl Necklace – 50" Strand with 9ct White Gold Clasp, 1967

This elegant vintage pearl necklace by renowned British jewellers Cropp & Farr is a superb example of 1960s craftsmanship. Measuring an impressive 50 inches in length, this single strand of creamy ivory cultured pearls is both versatile and timeless.

The pearls are individually hand-knotted, slightly graduated in size from 10mm to 6.5mm, and display a gentle lustre with a soft ivory tone. The necklace is secured with a beautiful 9ct white gold hook clasp, fully hallmarked for Birmingham 1967, and stamped with the maker’s initials C&F.

Thanks to its generous length, this necklace can be styled in multiple ways – worn long, doubled over for a layered look, or even wrapped around the wrist as a statement bracelet. The piece has a graceful drape and makes a refined addition to any jewellery collection.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A pearl rope necklace is a continuous strand measuring over 45 inches in length, designed to be draped long, looped multiple times, or tied in a knot.

Mid-century pearl necklaces typically feature matched cultured pearls hand-strung on silk thread with knots between each bead, secured by solid gold or silver hallmarked clasps.

Authentic British vintage pieces carry official assay office hallmarks indicating the purity of the precious metal, the makers mark, and a specific date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

A long pearl strand offers versatility, allowing it to be doubled into a two-row choker, wrapped around the wrist as a multi-strand bracelet, or hung long over tailored garments.

Pearls should be stored flat in a soft cloth pouch away from chemicals, perfumes, and direct heat, with regular re-strung silk thread recommended for frequently worn pieces.
