    I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season. I would appreciate any opinions on the origin of this necklace. The blue stones are glass. At first I was thinking Mexican but then I considered possibly India. The links are textured. The clasp is a box clasp. I cleaned it up a bit with a sunshine cloth and it still could use more cleaning. Each side of the chain is 7" so a 14" necklace. Pendant is 2" in diameter. AI says it is a Victorian revival festoon necklace but I don't believe that. Please let me know what you think. I am stumped. As always, thank you for looking.

    Thritto. The AI wasn't far off for once; it does look Victorian Revival-ish and they did make some in the 30s.

    That back is typical, I've many brooches like it. The sort of fat fan look and the piercing.

    The stones too. There's no question of where they were made, or when.
