[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 10273741, member: 2844"]Gorgeous necklace, shammie. It looks recent, but excellent quality. Also your Art Deco beads are probably Mediterranean red coral, and these beads are Momo coral, from the Pacific near Japan and Taiwan. Like Med red, Momo is also a precious coral, but it is more orangey than Med red and it can have occasional white spots called the 'soul' of the coral. A few of your beads have those spots.
