Pink Bead Costume Necklace 12 Strands Japan

Offered is a most enchanting pink bead costume necklace. The vintage jewelry piece has 12 strands of faux pearls and a hook clasp marked Japan. There is no visible wear to the gold colored metal findings.  The pearlized elements are undamaged. Only the bead tips have darkened with age where they attach to the spacer bars as shown. The necklace is approximately 15″ long as measured by the shortest strand, not including the 3″ extender chain (18″ total).  The longer rows provide for an additional drop in the center front.  This is a very pretty piece of old jewelry.
