Necklace Vintage 70s Brown Orange Clear Sixteen Strands Seed Beads Glass Mint Condition Amazing ...
$45 by Kathy's Kreations in Kingwood, Nov 09
I have been dealing with vintage jewelry pretty much my entire life - about 70 years. I have been seriously collecting, repairing, repurposing and selling it for the past 12 years now. I truly think this piece would win the award for the most fantastic piece I have ever seen. Probably mostly due to the fact I make jewelry and know what is involved with working with seed beads the size this necklace is made from. This 30 inch necklace is in perfect condition from what I can tell. This necklace is a vintage 70s piece. There are 16 strands of seed beads. Not only that but about every 8 inches, the creator took those 16 strands and made the barrel-shaped piece with just the brown and clear beads for about 1 1/4 inches and then continued on with these 16 strands. This entire necklace appears to be made with each of the 16 strands being one piece. The barrel shaped piece as far as I know is normally made on a loom. This necklace is tight and perfect. Wish i went places so I could keep it and wear it but I don't and it needs to be worn.
