Three graduated strands of faceted glass beads fall beneath the centerpiece, creating an elegant 3” lavalier drop.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe combination of geometric faceting, articulated beadwork and fringe is characteristic of Czechoslovakian glass jewelry produced for the export market during the Art Deco period. Similar documented examples are dated to the 1920s–30s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMost importantly, this one is signed CZECHOSLOVAKIA on the tiny ring adjoining the spring-ring clasp. The mark is extremely small and requires a loupe to read properly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeasurements:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 16.5” necklace length\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 3” total center drop\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 1 3\/8” center glass stone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeautiful antique condition with age-appropriate wear.

Please review photographs closely as they form part of the description.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyling:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is exactly the kind of Czech glass jewelry that makes the Art Deco period so collectible—the icy periwinkle color is spectacular against the warm aged metal.
