    I have this necklace and don’t know anything about it. I know it’s costume jewelry, but don’t know from what time period or might have made them being there are no markings. The beads are not plastic and I don’t think they are pearls. So any information you can give would be greatly appreciated.

    That's a very 1950s look. Please give them to komokwa if he promises to post a photo of himself wearing them.

    Since everyone else is distracted by the idea of Komo in faux pearls (and maybe nothing else) I'll say these are probably 1950s or 60s Japanese. The clasp reads German, but the bead pattern is straight Japan.

    If they aren't glass and aren't pearls, they are probably coated glass beads. I was also thinking west German, the clasp just being a bit nicer looking, maybe brass even. Could be Japan, too. They were doing some pretty nice beaded jewelry in the 50s/60s.

    Definitely don't toss. If they are coated glass, not huge value, but someone would love these. Donate at a minimum. It's a handsome looking necklace.
