Stunning Mid-Century Statement Piece Up for sale is a magnificent, ultra-long 52-inch multi-strand vintage necklace dating back to the 1950s–1960s. This piece is a masterclass in mid-century mixed-media jewelry design, combining vibrant colors with sophisticated textures.Materials: An eclectic, intentional blend of materials. Features molded art glass (including frosted milk-glass components engineered to look like hand-carved stone) paired with natural, carved gemstones (including what tests visually as rose quartz hearts and green aventurine/jade accents).UV Testing: This piece has been blacklight/UV tested. The opaque structural links and white spacer beads emit a brilliant, violet-purple luminescence characteristic of early mid-century lucite/polystyrene, while the genuine art glass and gemstone components remain beautifully dark and non-reactive, creating a striking contrast.Construction: Expertly crafted with hand-knotted threading between beads to ensure security and prevent wear. It secures with a heavy, premium barrel-shaped box-and-tongue clasp typical of high-quality Japanese and Czech export fashion jewelry from this era.Length: 52 inches (can be worn long, doubled, or tripled for a tiered effect). Condition ReportOverall Condition: Good Vintage Condition.Beads & Cord: All glass, gemstone, and plastic components are entirely intact with no major cracks or structural damage. The original hand-knotted cording remains strong and structurally sound.Hardware & Clasp: The box-and-tongue clasp is fully operational, closing with a secure, firm click.Vintage Wear: The metal casing shows a noticeable aged turquoise/green verdigris patina on its surface due to natural, decades-long oxidation of the copper/brass alloy. This has been left untreated to preserve the antique integrity of the item, but it can be lightly cleaned by the buyer if desired.Condition: Pre-OwnedOverall Condition: Good Vintage Condition. Please see pictures and description for details.
