    I needed help with this funny necklace as I didn't know the age of this or origin. I guessed 50's - 70's and Valentino97 later gave such a good explanation to this 'happy and carefree' necklace, read below.

    It´s plastic light weight, about 37 grams, it´s a long necklace 59 cm when closed. There are flat beads in stacks and at the end of the stacks there are beads in the shape of flowers. The necklace is strung on a cottonthread.

    It makes me think of schewingum and springtime.

    I have now so much jewelry that I tryed to sell some off at a market last summer. A little boy wanted to buy this. I gave it to him :) I keep this post for memory of my odd inexpensive necklace:)

      I searched the net for gardenparty necklaces and must agree with you, it does look like that. Is that american, gardenparty necklaces? I've never heard about it before.

      The guessing remains - when is this from? I'm guessing 50's - 70's and America (for no other reason than the fact that they/you know how to celebrate!).

      Thankyou so much for that Val! It makes sence, happy and carefree in a wonderful way! I love that. People needed to take their minds off things and enjoy themselves. Something we still need to do I guess, there is something to learn from that. Thankyou!
