LEAF IT TO ME! .. Beautiful and dramatic 1941 McCLELLAND BARCLAY gold and pave three Maple leaf pendant necklace and wide 4-maple leaves bracelet set.

The necklace is signed McCLELLAND BARCLAY. The bracelet is not signed, but definitively McClelland Barclay. Very good vintage to excellent condition with some minor wear to the gold-plating (the exception to the norm) and a few darkening pave rhinestones. He extended his talents to making very stylized Art Deco jewelry using rhinestones in the colors of genuine stones on gold plated metal. He also created sculpture-like jewelry in sterling silver. With his short jewelry making career coming to an abrupt end in World War ll, his jewelry is very rare and highly collectible. McClelland Barclay jewelry is not to be confused with Barclay jewelry also manufactured around the same time. McClelland Barclay jewelry is marked with his full name.
