<p>[QUOTE="Kim Morrison, post: 710356, member: 11173"]I have come across a very unusual older glass necklace, Its made like a Myra glass, however its inner glass is green, and it has a finish on it like a Loetz piece, kind of carnival colors in green blue and yellow, but matte, no high sheen. The glass beads are cut into on both ends, and the glass inside is iridescent, but when the glass is held up to the light, it is completely opaque green, and you cant see the matte colors.</p><p>Also the cut glass portions pick up the light so much that they look like they are silver / metalic lined, but its just the glass. Sorry this is so long , but i have searched hundreds of sites, and haven't found a thing. Was wondering if maybe any of [ATTACH=full]187617[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]187618[/ATTACH] you have come across anything like these in your travels. Also, just a note, the lady i bought them from at a flea market indicated they were her mothers and had them restrung with green seed beads as she didn't like the original spacers. i never thought to ask what kind of spacers so i could have restrung them back to how they were originally.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
