This is a very attractive set of vintage Murano millefiori beads - which form a 26-inch (66 cm) long necklace.
The beads are all good quality vintage ones - probably 1920s or 1930s in date.
The necklace has a total of 23 millefiori rainbow beads which are all separated by tiny green and wine coloured lampwork spacer beads, as photographed.
The larger beads are in graduated sizes with the larger egg-shaped ones at the base and getting smaller as you go along the length and get nearer to the neck area.
They are certainly high-quality handmade glass beads - all made in Murano, Venice.
All the beads in my shop I have personally owned for many years and all came to me from the same source - so assuming they are all in the same general date range (ie first half of the 20th century). They are certainly not Chinese in origin !
I have taken lots of close up images of this lovely necklace. You can see from my photographs - that the canes used are the finest ones and that each bead has been skillfully made by hand.
All the beads are in good condition with no chips or cracks. No damages.
The main base colour for each millefiori bead is an emerald green glass with lots of tutti-frutti canes gathered on the surface and melted together and then polished to form a smooth finish.
The necklace has a good length to it - and it comfortably goes over your head. There is a tiny silver clip at the back - but you really don't have to use it to put the beads on as they go on without the need to fiddle about with fastenings.
It is a very fine millefiori necklace - and looks simply stunning.
It is on offer here at a fair price given its age, the quality of each beads, and the amount of work that has gone into making it.
