Beautiful carnival glass style graduated bead necklace and earrings that are elegant and stylish. I believe these are Czech fire polished beads, as the edges of the beads are smoother than one would expect from older glass beads. Also, while this set has a 1940s style, stringing is done with nylon cord. Old style shepherd's hood and clip backs. Beads are wired onto the earring backs. Necklace measures 13 1/2" with an additional 3" extender chain. Lots of fiery color! Great evening jewelry. Excellent condition.
