Circa 1960s

This is an incredible piece!

Snake jewelry is always in demand and considered by many to be a Holy Grail

In an extreme Art Deco, Prisoner of War (WW1) style very reminiscent of a lariat or sautoir necklace

Wooden beaded snake necklace

Amber beads, I have not tested but they do have particles within the beads. I do believe it is real amber but make no guarantee

Hand made by a skilled artisan

Barrel clasp closure

Two tone wooden beads, a deeper brown and lighter tan

Made of wooden beads with amber beads dotted with black beads on snakes head

The total length is 19 inches, two snake heads hang down an additional 2. 5 inches and are 3 inches wide

Gorgeous condition with only light wear
