Did you get all that? What an amazing necklace we have here. This necklace is right around 80 years old, with the stamping of silver on the back of the cross it's possible it came out of Japan.
The coral beads graduate from roughly 6mm to 3mm so they are quite dainty or simply put, small beads. The cross is marked silver and it also has coral cabochons. The beautiful necklace is held together by a very old 10K locking barrel clasp. The beads are knotted in between each and it's possible this necklace has been restrung at some point.
The overall length of the choker is 13 1/2 inches.
Antique coral beads graduating up and down to the centerpiece cross.
Each bead is knotted and secure.
The silver cross is stamped silver on the back.
The barrel clasp is marked 10k gold.
Thank you -
