Featured turquoise mottled glass bead necklace

hi folks

something i found in a charity shop today for a couple of squid

any ideas on origin, or age

any thoughts appreciated

 

THINKING....Very Nice!!!​

 

Looks like some vintage Italian beads I have. Can’t help much further but they are beautiful

 

Interesting, thanks Gg, will look into that

 

I believe Italy too.. and I think the "sparks" I've seen them as Sommerso or Aventurina: https://www.venetianbeadshop.com/sommerso.html
Nice catch !

 

Thanks Xris

 

nice glass,,,,,,, Bling!!

 

Thanks buddy

Do ya know, I've been searching for years to find the killer of my mother in law

Still haven't found anyone who will do it yet though

 

dat's sad Charles.......... so very sad..,,,,,

 

Aventurine, not sommerso. Sommerso is layered glass. Those are nice old Ventian spatter glass with aventurine beads. How long is it?

 

Awesome info, thanks obb. They measure 15 inches clasped

 

I'd think maybe even thirties ish with that length and the barrel clasp. The caps and those rods are typical of Czech pieces, so the beads may have been exported.

 

Unless they're missing a chunk. I've run into beads strung that way before, and they were a lot longer and closer to 1975 than 1935.
