are the gemstones authentic?

Really, there is no way for me to know, since this necklace is at least 30 or 40 years old. My guess would be no, because this type of jewelry was designed to be affordable, and true gemstones like Citrine and Peridot would have made the piece much more expensive.

It's a well made necklace but I would treat it as purely costume.

You said there are 3 leaves. But I only see 2. Is one missing and you have it or is it hiding behind one of the others?

Hi Sheila240,

When I was describing the three leaves, I was referring to the long top leaf, and the two smaller heart shaped leaves underneath. There are no missing parts on the necklace.
