Rousselet Jewellery became well known and production continued until 1975 when the last trained craftsman retired. Rousselet died in 1980.This necklace comprises three delicately modelled gilt metal stylised flower heads with yellow glass beads at the centre, joined on either side by further glass beads and flower heads and then a chain with fine metal and glass bead links.
