The dark turquoise glass beads were made in Japan in the years following WWII.Each one was made by hand over an open flame, so no two are exactly alike (except in their beauty).In the four seed bead strands that join the larger beads, I've picked up two of the many colours in their millefiore decoration: pale leaf green and glowing topaz.The 30" necklace closes with a round gold plate box clasp.Innovative and lovely, it's from SPARKLE PLENTY, of course.All of our one of a kind and limited edition artisan beaded jewelry is individually handcrafted in our studio in Los Angeles, California.
