Authenticity Indicators
Confidence: Medium-High. Look for the tiny Swarovski 'Swan' logo etched on the back of the pendant or on the clasp/extender tag. The precision of the facets and the clarity of the AB coating are consistent with Swarovski quality.

The chain has some kinking near the pendant that may need smoothing; possible light wear to the plating on the back of the pendant; no original box or certificates visible.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay or Poshmark are best for branded jewelry. Mercari is a good secondary option for a quick sale. Etsy is only an option if the item can be proven to be 20+ years old.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Iridescent', 'Rainbow', 'Aurora Borealis', and 'Cushion Cut'. Take photos against a black background and in natural sunlight to catch the color flashes. Measure the chain length and pendant size. If the Swarovski swan logo is present, provide a clear macro photo of it.
