Can anyone give any insight on this necklace?

I have been on jewellery sites for past 2 days trying to ID this, nearest I can figure out is Ben Amun, ,Mark is extremly difficult to see clearly, Pretty sure first name is Ben, Is there a name for this stly of beading? they are all very cleanly cut and uniform in size, cool to touch strung on thread, Havent checked yet to see if center piece is, silver,Hope someone recognizes it, Thanks in advance, Am debating whether to sell it, wear it, or put it in my daughters Christmas bag

 

Sure looks like Ben-Amun but high end maker of costume jewelry so won't be silver.

Yeppers - nice quality costume jewelry. It's a New York firm that's still in business.

Here is a similar one offered, if you want to see how it goes.

All I can say is it's not from the 1980s. I was buying from the Ben-Amun showroom in New York City then and this is not from that time period.

You are all just wonderful, now why didnt I see the one listed when I was searching,I see it did not sell but it at least gave me a framework, Thank you all so much.

 

Think the opening bid price was unrealistic.

The same necklace has been relisted ... for $10. My target resale price on it would be about $20-30.
