About the Item

This is a gorgeous, original Arts Crafts era (circa 1900) features 59 hand-carved round agate beads measuring 10mm to 14m, linked with hand-twisted silver wire. The spring clasp appears to be original to the piece. A luxurious 34" in length, this gorgeous necklace is weighty and substantial. The agate beads are ever-so-slightly off-round, indicating their pedigree as hand-carved beads. The palate ranges from slight smoky grey-blue to amber, with streaks and speckles of black and green. It's heavenly and in pristine condition. The silver has not been polished, but the next owner should feel free to do so. A real treasure from the long-lost Arts Crafts era, when jewelry artisans prided themselves on crafting each piece entirely by hand.

Chinese Antique Jade Necklace Near Colorless Certified Untreated, Restrung
Located in Northampton, MA
Created by hand between 1910-1920, this 21" strand of natural, untreated, Burmese jadeite jade possesses an ethereal, luminous beauty. Though they have been classified as "pale green to near colorless" in the gem lab report, each bead is has its own subtle tone. True, from a distance the beads read as white. But then, step into the shadows and their subtle tones are liberated. The tones are there in the light, too: it's just that sometimes looking isn't enough; you need to look but you also need to see. I think this is a spectacular strand for the subtlety of the tone and the quality of translucence. I've used low light to shoot them, so that you can see how gorgeous they are i the lowest of light. The sixty-two 7.3mm 8.5mm beads have been freshly restrung and a new 18K Japanese...
