Featured While we're on the subject of glass beads.... ;)

Paging @kyratango

Whaddya reckon on these, then? I'm fairly sure the pearls are genuine freshwater. Beads are cold and heavy and might be stone, but I think some have bubbles. And a couple are carved, so it's perplexing.

 

Very appealing color and mix with the rice pearls and the caps!
Glass, definitely, the carving might be molded/pressed.
Bubbles, surface appearance...

 

Thought so. Not bad for the equivalent of two euro and about ten cents.

 

Not bad at all!

 

I shall wear it, trust me.

 

Japanese? They look it. The necklace could have been assembled anywhere of course.

 

I thought the pearls might be Chinese, but wdik.

 

The pearls probably are. The glass beads??? I figured Japanese, but you never know.

 

As you rightly say, could have been put together anywhere, so an eclectic mix is entirely feasible!
