Know anything about Vendome costume jewellery?


I can't figure out this piece I thrifted for a song recently. It is signed "Vendome", which I know to be a highly collectible line of costume bling that replaced Corocraft, Coro's high-end line, in the mid-1940s. But Vendome is known for its rhinestones and glass beads and lovely designs, not this 1980s-esque look.


So is this a fake Vendome, or am I missing something about Vendome? Any one know?
