I'm in need of some info on this necklace. The reddish beads and peach color pendant are a plastic/celluloid. It tests negative for bakelite. The lobster clasp is the only piece that seems newer, original may have been replaced? Would anyone have any ideas on age or any info?
Thank you!
This piece seem new to me as well judging from the back of the pendant, the setting is new but the necklace is supposed to look old.
I thought so too when I first saw it, however the beads have no seams and looking at them and the peachy colored piece under a loop they appear to be hand carved. The silver tone framing around the peach piece looks hand chiseled. I'm wondering if the extension piece was added on later. It's a mystery to me? Thank you kindly for your input!
