Brighton Necklace, Western Jewelry

This Unique one of a kind necklace is made with a Vintage Brighton Belt buckle and Vintage silver rolo chain that is re-purposed from another vintage Brighton Chain belt. The Pendant is a beautiful multi stone cross inlayed in sterling silver. I have added two each coral, turquoise and Authentic silver bench beads to the chain. Brighton jewelry and other silver accessories, are cast in solid brass or zinc, and then dipped in pure silver. Since silver has a natural tendency to tarnish (oxidize) and scratch, Brighton has added a protective layer of lacquer. One thing good about having a lacquer coating is that it never tarnishes and it makes it very resistant to scratches. The buckle measures 3" by 2 1/2" The full chain measures 22" and has a lobster clasp and a 2" extender.
