1960s Japan Bead Necklace

This beautiful one strand necklace from Japan features a gorgeous combination of champagne and bronze pearlized beads. The strand begins and ends with alternating bronze polygon and oval beads separated by clear spacers. The design then changes to teardrop beads, ridged gold-tone metal oval and gold-tone metal rondelle beads, and the bronze polygon beads in an attractive design. The oval metal beads are accented by tiny rings of champagne and bronze seeds around the center of the beads. The necklace closes with a round gold-tone box clasp that is topped by a beautiful round bronze bead in a dog tooth setting. It is signed JAPAN on the side of the box clasp and is in excellent vintage condition.
