Description: Vintage Art Deco cherry amber Bakelite necklace. Graduated oval faceted beads on the original red silk stringing, with the original hidden carved clasp. This is breathtaking; it is unusually long, the number of beads is thrilling, and the color is simply stunning -- rich and glowing. The largest bead at the center is one inch long by 3/4 inch wide. It is one of the most intense cherry amber Bakelite necklaces I have ever encountered. The string is slightly stretched, so the beads are not tight, but it seems completely secure. And it has that original double-bead clasp with the hidden carved twist that is so emblematic of the best of these necklaces. A rare and wonderful treat for any time of year, but especially at the holidays. Simichrome tested. 34"L. From my longtime collection of thousands of pieces... time to let them go to new homes! The Fine Print: All jewelry from my collection of 35+ years is vintage or antique, and as such will not look perfectly new (duh), though I will admit there are a number of them that are pretty close!
