Vintage Art Deco graduated faceted rock crystal bead necklace. nlbd1099

In the bead trade, what is often called “cut crystal” is in fact faceted leaded glass. But these lovely beads are actually faceted from natural rock crystal quartz by hand. Graduating in size from 7mm to 11mm, 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 vermeil gold wash round filigree box clasp. Natural inclusions can be seen in the beads that give testament to their natural origin. 24 inches in length.
