Era / Decade
Early 2010s (circa 2012-2015)
Material
Mixed metals with gold-tone plating, acrylic/plastic cabochons, and a resin synthetic tusk.
Condition
Very Good. The stones appear intact and the gold-tone finish is still bright; however, there is slight visible wear on the chain links near the clasp area typical of costume jewelry.
Demand Level
Low to Moderate. The 'Statement Necklace' trend has largely been replaced by 'Layered Dainty' jewelry, but there is a niche market for 'Cheugy' or early 2010s nostalgia wear.
