I had an amazing day yesterday filled with treasure hunting, going home with bags full of treasures! Among which was this necklace which feels like a quality piece.
It is marked "made in france" on the pedant and then an "R" in an oval.
Costume jewellery is not really my area of expertise so I am looking for help. It feels like 30's-40's piece and all the stones are absolutely intact but will need a gentle wash (tips?)
Any help on identifying this maker would be appreciated.

Sorry Katya I don't know. But this is awesome!!! What other treasures did you find? I love a good day of hunting.
I got a beautiful large 40's ster silver and marcasite filigree brooch, a lot of scandinavian glass (signed and with labels), some scandinavian textiles, some modernist mid century designer pieces and a few cast iron cookware items including a griswold frying pan. Prices were just silly!
i just posted a kids Campbell plastic saucer and cup set made in taly probably from the 50's but I need hep with it.
Green! I love this
