DESCRIPTION: If you love a pop of color and big beads, this 1950s' or early 60s' necklace is for you! Perfect with a sweater or dress and perfect for year-round wear. The large beads are black faceted lucite and red faceted swirled lucite, with gold-tone spacer beads. There are 4 small molded, pink-swirled beads toward the ends of each strand and small black faceted beads at the ends. Decorative silver-tone terminations and hook-and-bead fastener complete the look. No maker's mark; probably from Japan or Hong Kong.

NOTE: Red beads are raspberry red, but appear more toward pink in some photos.

SIZE: Adjustable. Shortest strand at shortest adjustment is about 18" long; at longest, about 20". Largest beads are about 20 mm, and they graduate down from there.

CONDITION: Excellent. The termination bars have some finish discoloration, and the hook finish is worn. Cosmetic only, no damage to the metal.
