I can't help think of Sam Sparro's Black & Gold when admiring Mayfair #197..
Ellie Goulding's cover is a close second.

Introducing MAYFAIR

In the 1920's, Coco Chanel incorporated costume jewelry into her fashion philosophy, catapulting fashion jewelry into the market. During the war years, many of the best designers and makers of fine jewelry moved to the fashion industry resulting in the high standard of craftsmanship.

These necklaces are made with brooches dating from the 1920's, 30's, and 40's.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Moisture is death to these pieces. Be careful to keep them free of water and perfume. Be gentle when arranging your necklaces.
