Vintage Lotus Simulated Pearl Necklace with Swarovski Crystal Key Pendant — 1960s

A signed Lotus single-strand simulated pearl necklace from the 1960s, complete with its original guarantee from Ocean Trading Co., Southampton, dated 1960 — redesigned with a large Swarovski crystal key pendant in black diamond from Austria. Lotus was one of Britain's most respected pearl jewellery brands of the mid-20th century, known for the exceptional quality of its simulated pearls. The original guarantee makes this piece genuinely rare; documentation of this kind almost never survives alongside the jewellery.
