Description: I AM SELLING THIS INHERITED FROM MY MOTHER IN LAW NECKLACE. BOTH OF MY IN LAWS WERE BORN IN TURKEY & LEFT TURKEY IN 1970. I AM UNSURE WHEN MY MOTHER IN LAW PURCHASED THIS NECKLACE OR IF SHE ALSO RECEIVED IT / INHERITED IT FROM HER MOTHER, BUT IT HAS BEEN IN THE SAFE SINCE 1970, BECAUSE IT DID NOT FIT HER ( AND , SADLY, DOES NOT FIT ME EITHER AND ALSO I AM UNABLE TO WEAR HEAVY CHUNKY NECKLACES AROUND MY NECK). MY MOTHER IN LAW USED TO TELL ME THAT AS A YOUNG WOMAN, WHENEVER HER HUSBAND WOULD WANT TO BUY HER A GIFT, SHE LOVED GOING TO THE GOLD BAZAR , LOOKING AT ALL OF THE BEAUTIFUL PIECES, BARGAINING AND BUYING GOLD JEWELRY. THIS NECKLACE LOOKS TO ME AS IF IT WAS A CUSTOM MADE PIECE AND DEFINITELY HAND MADE TOO! THE OTTOMAN TURKISH COINS ARE “MADE BELIEVE” : THEY ARE DONE IN THE DESIGN OF TURKISH COINS, BUT THEY ARE ❤️ NOT ❤️ REAL COINS.ALSO, THE NECKLACE IS EITHER TANGLED ( LOOKS THIS WAY TO ME) OR I AM UNABLE / DONT KNOW HOW TO GET IT ALL STRAIGHTEN OUT AND LAY DOWN FLAT. OR, THERE IS A THIRD POSSIBILITY : ITS SUPPOSED TO BE THIS WAY AND ITS PART OF THE DESIGN, I JUST DONT KNOW & WILL LEAVE THIS TASK TO THE NEW OWNER TO DECIDE AND SORT OUT.I WOULD ALSO ADD A CHAIN OR SOMETHING ELSE TO THE LOCK TO MAKE IT MORE SECURE FOR SUCH A HEAVY PIECE , BECAUSE TO ME THE EXISTING LOCK, EVEN THOUGH ITS ORIGINAL TO THE NECKLACE AND ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE AND BEAUTIFUL, BUT IT OPENS UP VERY EASILY. BUT, AGAIN, WILL LEAVE THIS DECISION / TASK UP TO THE NEW CARE TAKER OF THIS UNIQUE , VERY UNUSUAL PIECE !!!THE LOCK IS STAMPED 18K GOLD ( AND ACID TESTED)THE NECKLACE ITSELF PASSED 22K HOME ACID TEST, BUT UNTIL I HAVE TIME TO GO & PUT IT TROUGH THE MACHINE TO MAKE SURE ITS TRULY 22K , ❤️ I AM SELLING THIS NECKLACE IT AS AN 18K GOLD AND ONLY CONFIRMING 18K GOLD TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE.❤️THE NECKLACE IS ❤️VERY APPROXIMATELY ❤️( AS ITS HARD TO MEASURE EXACT , SEE PHOTO ) ABOUT 16” LONG . YOUR JEWELER MAY BE ABLE TO ADD EXTENDER CHAIN TO THE BACK OF THE NECKLACE TO MAKE IT LONGER, IF DESIRED.ALL PICTURES ARE PART OF THE DESCRIPTION.I CAN ONLY MAIL IT SIGNATURE REQUIRED TO YOUR EBAY REGISTERED ADDRESS WITHIN 48 US STATES. ONE OF A KIND UNIQUE PIECE !!!
