Rare vintage graduated cut rock crystal necklace. nlbd1099e

In the bead trade, what is often called “cut crystal” is in fact faceted leaded glass. But these rare beads are actually faceted from natural rock crystal quartz by hand. Graduating in size from 20 to 7mm, this bead strand is in excellent sturdy condition and ready to wear. The beads have been knotted on white cotton and attached to a silver gilded clasp. Natural inclusions can be seen in the beads that give testament to their natural origin. 24 inches in length.
