Rare Diane Von Furstenberg Beautiful Natural Coral and Mother of Pearl

Amazing Vintage Diane Von Fürstenberg natural Coral with Mother of Pearl
convertible necklace.

Wearable length of necklace is variable from about 15 to 24 inches.
The necklace is composed of 2 sections with 4 strand loops on silk cord.
I have styled this several ways and separated it so you can see how it is made,
how versatile it can be for styling and oh so wearable in the 70's and now

I have searched all over to compare this set or try to determine if there were any other pieces,
there was another similar piece to this in the collection I acquired,
see separate listing for that necklace
I can't find any others available so it was probably relatively limited production.

These are from a Wholesale Boutique I bought in Atlanta, I believe the owner kept these because they were Samples.
Many were on original velvet boards and the tags have the original wholesale prices and descriptions of what colors were available.
I purchased a large approximately 100-200 piece collection of DVF, this is one of the first I will be listing..
I also was able to purchase about 40 pieces of Valentino, around 40 pieces of Lanvin, some YSL
