Absolutely fabulous vintage Elsa Peretti designed perfume necklace for Halston. This amazing piece was designed by the legendary Elsa Peretti before her time at Tiffany & Co. began in the mid-1970s. This bean shaped locket necklace originally was a solid perfume pendant designed by this iconic fashion designer.

This necklace features the iconic Peretti bean design, a timeless and iconic symbol of rebirth and good luck. The necklace chain is sterling silver and marked "STERLING" on the spring ring clasp. The bean is made from silver-plated metal.

NOTE: This is a Halston perfume locket (remnants of perfume can be seen in the 3rd photo, since it is now cleaned) and is NOT signed Tiffany. This amazing perfume locket was made prior to Elsa Peretti’s time with Tiffany, when she worked for the perfume company Halston. Only the chain is marked STERLING. No other markings.

Length : 23 1/2 inches Pendant is 2 inches across

Condition: Nice vintage condition with very little wear, the item is circa 1970s so some use marks, etc may be present. The locket has been cleaned and lightly polished. See photos and video for details. Locket closes securely and spring ring clasp on chain works well.

Markings: STERLING on spring ring clasp.

Elsa Peretti® Bean® design (per Tiffany):
A symbol of life’s origin and the shape of nature, Elsa Peretti’s Bean® design is defined by smooth contours and sensuous curves.

More about Elsa Peretti (per Wikipedia):
Elsa Peretti, (1 May 1940 – 18 March 2021), was an Italian jewelry designer and philanthropist as well as a fashion model. Her jewelry and design pieces for Tiffany & Co. are included in the 20th century collection of the British Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. In 1974 Peretti, the "Halstonette" fashion model arrived at Tiffany's with her modern jewelry. Her broadly popular work, including pieces like Bean, Bone Cuff and Open Heart, became as much as 10% of Tiffany's business and John Loring's Tiffany Style – 170 Years of Design devotes 18 pages of images to her jewelry and tableware design. Vogue described her as "arguably the most successful woman ever to work in the jewelry field.

    Beautiful vintage jewelry piece and fast shipping!!


    While I did not end up keeping this beautiful item I want to comment how incredible the customer service is for this shop. In an era where customer service can often be lacking, this shop owner was very quick to respond and very good at resolutions and I greatly appreciated it.
