Collectors: Rare Stunning Vintage Elsa Peretti for Halston (Pre-Tiffany & Co.” Golden Bean Perfume Locket - 1970s - With Perfume

This rare, vintage beauty is collector’s dream piece! It’s designed by designer Elsa Peretti, for Halston. This is a golden bean perfume locket & they are considered rare collector's pieces, especially when they still contain the original solid perfume. Last image shows 2 pinpoint scuffs on the backside of the locket, which has no effect on the functionality or presence of this beautiful piece. This locket is made extremely well & has no issues with the closure (opens & closes easily.. just as if it were brand new).. The texture is cool to the touch & feels very smooth in the hand.. The locket contains the original perfume, which collectors usually prefer due to improving the value & aiding with authenticating the age. (Due to age the perfume, it is expired & is for looks only & not for personal use) . The chain is no longer present, which is a common factor with this piece. Finding these lockets without their original chain is quite common, but the presence of the perfume itself remains a significant "rare and special detail" for collectors. Rarity and Value Factors: *Original Perfume: It is rare to find these 1970s pieces with the authentic solid perfume still intact. Many vintage examples have been cleaned out over time for sanitary purposes. *Pre-Tiffany Era”: These pieces were commissioned by Halston in the early 1970s before Peretti’s partnership with Tiffany & Co. began in 1974. They were originally released in limited quantities through high-end retailers like Elizabeth Arden. *Markings: It is particularly rare to find these with the original "Halston Peretti" markings. Many original perfume locket pendants from this era were produced in high-quality gold-tone or silver-plated metal and were often unmarked.
