<p>[QUOTE="wenna, post: 177514, member: 541"][ATTACH=full]49370[/ATTACH] What do you think? Frosted quartz or frosted glass chunks? The necklace is 21.5" long (not including clasp) and weighs in at 5 ounces. The largest 'chunk' is 7/8" high with a 3/4" diameter at the widest part. The large beads are satiny and somewhat faceted. Some are nice and clear while others look a little rough. Looks like this is probably studio/artisan made; I couldn't find anything real similar online; it does not have any markings. I of course was dearly hoping the gold beads and clasp were solid gold (hahahahahahhaha) :O) I think they are at least gold plated/filled. Does this style look familiar to anyone? Can you name that artisan as well as the stone (if it is stone)? Do you think older/vintage or more recent? Thanks as always for looking![ATTACH=full]49366[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]49367[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]49368[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]49369[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
