OVERVIEW: Here’s a neat c. 1950s studio-made necklace. It consists of individually knotted glazed ceramic beads in a thick disc shape. There are two or three shades of green, and some have traces of gold painted detailing. The glaze shows crazing on all beads, I’m not sure if it is intentional or from age, but it looks cool. Original sterling end caps and hook clasp. A very interesting mid-century piece!
MARKS: none, clasp tested and guaranteed sterling
DIMENSIONS: wearable length 18”; beads measure about 5/8”-3/4” (they are handmade, so there is some variation)
WEIGHT: 61.8g
CONDITION: very good vintage condition; as noted, the glaze is crazed and the gold painted detailing is mostly worn off
