    Description

    If I describe an item inaccurately or miss obvious damage, I will most certainly accept a return, but I must know immediately about any problems. I welcome any & all questions, so ask. This will help to alleviate any doubts you might have. I will allow 2 days after receipt of the item to hear from you. But check my feedback to feel secure about making a purchase from me. I try to provide good pictures & be picky about descriptions. And if I charge for it, I'm always happy to combine shipping with multiple purchases.
    I have more great jewelry for sale, so check out my other items if you're interested.
    This is a lovely necklace.  I wish I could have caught some more of the richness of color this has in my pictures.
    This strand has graduated round beads, the largest being about 9/16" across, the smallest about 5/16".  Laid flat it's about 16 -1/2" long from attaching points [not counting the screw part].  It may fit a bit closer due to the size of the beads.  They have that egg yolky butterscotch depth of color.  It weighs 34 grams on a digital postal scale.
    It has the old style recessed screw catch.  It has a great machine age geometric cutting to it, not just the usual plain round half bead.  The screw holds the strand securely, but does not allow the ends of the catch to touch: you see maybe a 16th of an inch of the screw when closed.
    Other than that they are in good vintage condition with no damage I can detect.  Testing with Simichrome polish showed a faint yellow tobacco tar color on a cloth.
    Simply a gorgeous necklace.
