This is a phenomenal antique 14k gold bead necklace in exceptional condition with the largest beads I have ever seen in the 30 years in this business.

These strands are difficult to find in gold as they are more common in gold filled. Typically the lengths of these beautiful bead necklaces are a choker length which look amazing layered. These beads are generally strung on a chain that is not gold so that it is more durable. These beads are made in halves so you will notice patina at the seam where they were assembled and soldered together.
