The queen was the leading influence on jewelry styles for the next sixty years. It became fashionable to wear several necklaces at once and to wear chokers high on the neck. The jewelry of the period is characterized by light, open work using several techniques of filigree, piercing, cannetille and repousse. Many pieces were fabricated from thin sheets of gold that were chased and engraved. Condition is good. Total Weight of Propelling Pencil Set 44.17 grams. AIG Appraised at $3,990.00.
