A remarkable antique necklace featuring 14k gold beads, notable for their exceptional condition and unusually large size—a rarity in the collector's market. Gold bead necklaces of this caliber are seldom encountered, often found in gold-filled compositions or shorter choker lengths. While bead necklaces are typically strung on non-gold chain for durability, the construction method of this piece involves soldering two halves, resulting in visible patina along the seams, indicative of its age.
