The front part of the necklace is adorned with a row of multifaceted multicoloured beads, alternating transparent, pale yellow and iridescent grey tones. These beads are mounted in dense succession, forming a decorative fringe that adds relief and brilliance to the piece. The metal finish is a slightly coppery or bronze hue, with beautiful regularity in the assembly of the links, typical of mid-20th century costume jewellery designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe necklace is equipped with an extension chain with large round links and a lobster clasp, both visible in the photo. This extension allows for easy adjustment around the neck. The main mesh, flat and wide, gives the piece a strong presence, while the flexibility of the mounting ensures comfortable wear. No logo or inscription is visible on the photographed side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of faceted beads and metal mesh evokes an influence from the 60s or 70s, though this cannot be stated with certainty. The overall style is sophisticated, perfect for enhancing an evening outfit or adding a retro touch to a contemporary look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe photo highlights the brilliance of the metal and the play of light created by the different facets of the beads. The object is presented on a bright yellow background that accentuates the contrast and emphasizes the warm colour of the mesh. The overall finish shows a beautiful homogeneity of assembly, with no apparent defects on the visible side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNotable detail: each bead is individually mounted, creating a dense and mobile fringe effect. The arrangement of colours and bead shapes reinforces the unique aspect of this necklace, which stands out from standard productions due to its original composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond-hand jewellery, sold as is.
