[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 4297488, member: 51"]Take a good look at the first pearl bead to the left of the clasp. I agree that it seems like the pearl looking luster or finish is completely gone and you can see glass. Necklaces mimicking pearls were made in a couple of ways. The least expensive would be plastic ones, a bit fancier were glass beads that were coated. Those glass ones can feel like the real deal because they have good weight. That's my guess of what this is. But more photos can't hurt. Also when you post the pictures, please click on "FULL IMAGE" so the photos post larger. Also, welcome![/QUOTE]
