[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 368074, member: 2844"]At least, I think it is Art Deco. Influenced by ethnic necklaces from northern India. The beads are glass. They look very much like turquoise, but are definitely glass, with almost invisible seams. That makes me think it is Czech, they were so good at imitating (semi) precious stones, and they also worked in ethnic styles. The yellowish spots on the silvertone metal are reflections of my shirt.:shame: There is no mark. The length is 45 cm / 17.71" It may have been restrung at some stage. Does anyone know this style? Any ideas on age, origin, manufacturer? Thank you for looking.:) [ATTACH=full]126193[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]126194[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]126195[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]126196[/ATTACH] The back of the pendant and the clasp: [ATTACH=full]126197[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
