Marked West Germany. Great double strand necklace consisting of mostly plastic beads in shades of amber and green.

Item si2008
colorful lucite necklace
Click to enlarge

Price: $54


Marked Germany. Triple strand faceted lucite bead necklace with various shape in greens, amber color, orange, yellow and smoked topaz color. The center strand makes this just a little different from your normal triple strand beaded necklace because in addition to the beads matching those in the other two strands there are bell shaped beads hanging between those in the center of the necklace. Clasp is a "J" hook. Length below pertains to shortest strand.

Item si2117
black/white glass bead set
Click to enlarge

Price: $69


Marked Japan. This four strand necklace and earring set will go with almost any outfit. The opaque black glass beads are such a unique shape that I really can't think of a name to describe them. They alternate with glass pearls that have a lite aurora borealis finish to them. Each bead is separated with a crystal seed bead. The matching clip earrings use the glass pearls and the black beads, but have none of the crystal seed beads. The findings are silver colored, with the exception of a 2 inch extension that must have been added by the original owner and can easily be removed if you wish. The necklace has a "J" hook. The measurement below pertains to the shortest strand without the 2 inch extension.
Earrings: Dia.: 1 in. Condition: very good
Necklace: Length: 14-16 1/2 in. Condition: very good

4 strand beaded necklace

Marked W Germany, this four strand necklace combines wooden beads and art glass beads. The wooden beads are a natural looking tan color with just a hint of pink. There are flat glass beads in shades of blue, green and red and givré glass beads with centers in various colors. They remind me of the "cat eye" marbles I used to play with as a child, but these beads aren't round.

Item si1797
72 inch glass pearl necklace
Click to enlarge

Price: $89


I'll bet you think this is a triple strand glass pearl necklace. If you do, you're half right....it is a glass pearl necklace but it's a whopping 72 in. single strand! Think of the different ways you could wear this....even draped around your waist! The glass pearls are 8mm size and almost a champagne color, not a stark white. There is no clasp, just a continuous strand of quality glass pearls with lots of lustre.
Length: 72 in. Condition: excellent
Item gp245b
garnet red bead rope
Click to enlarge

This necklace reminds me of almost ripened blackberries. This necklace is made of small, deep red glass beads woven into a rope using a cranberry colored thread, which extends beyond the beads in two braids and is fastened bolo style with a decorative brass bead. The ends of the braids they are joined with a tassle. Condition would be listed as excellent but for some slight unraveling on one braid.

Item gp230j
cranberry ceramic beads
Click to enlarge

Price: $30


Five large (1" across) round ceramic beads in a pretty cranberry color are the focal point of this necklace. Between the large beads are short, tube shaped beads in the same color separated with brass spacers, some of which are flat and others remind me of bicycle chain. The beads and spacers are all strung on a thick black cord that may be some sort of rubber. One of the large beads has three tiny specks of white where it looks like possibly it was knocked up against something, but there is no other damage.
Length: 24 1/2 in. Condition: very good
Item gp317k
Boho mixed bead necklace
Click to enlarge

Price: $39


This ethnic looking necklace contains mixed materials that I believe to be glass, wood, bone and possibly some plastic. The large center bead (1 1/8" wide) looks like dyed mother of pearl, but I am assuming that it is just glass and it's definitely not plastic. On either side of the bead are spacers of bone and wood. The larger white beads on either side are a mystery to me...they may be wood but I can't be sure. I am also unsure about the two large M&M shaped beads just behind the white beads. They are somewhat translucent and amber colored. The back of the necklace consists a small, amber colored beads that I'm assuming are glass. The necklace has a barrel clasp. This necklace is big and bold and looks great on!
Length: 18 in. Condition: very good
Item gp228g
Boho carved bone necklace
Click to enlarge

Eight strands of bone beads, joined into a single strand of carved bone beads, then fastened with a "J" hook and ring. The eight strands are knotted in the center with 3 rings on either side of the knot. The last carved bead on one end has a chip, otherwise in excellent condition. Very Boho!
Length: 19 in. Condition: very good
