She leaned over the case, tapped one of the beads with a fingernail, and declared that the necklace was “probably Venetian.”. Private estate-jewelry preview. Saturday afternoon. The dealer notices the three strands of enormous cherry-red beads at your neck and quietly decides you must either collect important costume jewelry or own enough lacquered furniture to require a separate insurance rider. Nobody asks which. A chair appears beside the display cases, somebody produces a tray that was absolutely not on the floor five minutes ago, and before long you are being consulted on whether a signed bracelet is “too commercial” for the estate and whether the red necklace in the vault should be shown before cocktails or after. This is a vintage-style three-strand statement necklace featuring bold cherry-red beads with gold-tone spacer beads and a decorative clasp. The strands are graduated for a layered look, with the largest beads concentrated toward the front. The red beads appear faceted or softly cut in areas, giving the surface extra texture and light reflection. Gold-tone spacers separate the beads throughout and coordinate with the decorative clasp and chain components at the back. The overall effect is bold, colorful, and highly wearable, with a strong mid-century / vintage-inspired costume jewelry look. • Maker / brand unknown • Approx. 17" necklace length • Three-strand construction • Cherry-red beaded design • Chunky graduated statement beads • Gold-tone spacer beads • Decorative gold-tone clasp • Layered graduated profile • Vintage-style / mid-century-inspired look • Exact age / era unconfirmed • Exact bead material untested • Metal composition untested • Exact maker / origin unconfirmed • Preowned condition; appears very good with light wear consistent with use • Weight not provided Babs Fartsworth arrived wearing a strand of red Christmas ornaments and said she had “always understood scale better than most jewelers.” She leaned over the case, tapped one of the beads with a fingernail, and declared that the necklace was “probably Venetian.” The dealer asked what made her think that. Babs said the red felt European. I needed to be somewhere else. Ships securely because three strands of chunky red beads should arrive as a necklace, not as a tiny jewelry avalanche with a clasp trapped somewhere underneath. Condition: Pre-owned - Excellent.
