The bias drilled cubes are contemporary glass, although the faceting is crisp enough that they might at first be mistaken for crystal. They have strands of white and peridot green floating through their clear matrices. The beads that flank the cubes are vintage West German crystal from the late 1940s. These, too, are clear with clouds of peridot green floating within them. The strand also features white Czech pressed glass roundels and Czech 4mm round peridot crystal. The larger beads are spaced with tiny iridescent clear seedbeads. The 25-1/2" strand closes with a pewter toggle clasp. It's another beautiful necklace from SPARKLE PLENTY.
