      Very pretty. The stone, if natural, looks to be Larimar. Love the chain too!

      Yes everyone & their sister describes their items as NEIGER Czech pieces with few being authenticated.
      I c/b wrong but I believe this to be Peking Glass.
      There is a beautiful one on Rubylane at Phoenix Jewelry
      “Art Nouveau Czech Neiger Gargoyle Dragon Jade Peking Glass Brass NecklaceChoker”. But it’s not a dragon or griffin. Anyone who has an interest in the finer end of vintage costume jewellery will learn to know this family name — that of Neiger, or more properly the Neiger brothers, who were murdered with an entire generation of their Jewish brethren at Auschwitz in Poland.

      NOTE: Identification can be difficult, as many Neiger pieces ARE NOT MARKED.
      THUS THIS OPENS THE DOOR TOO MANY KNOCK-offs!

      The Chinese character on the top means “Happiness/good fortune”, such a beautiful piece to have!

      Thanks so very much.
      You just added so much knowing there is “reason” as well as “beauty”.
