*Description: This is a beautiful vintage millefiori beaded necklace and matching bracelet from the 1950s. The beads are made with bright colors of glass. This necklace is hand knotted and is attached to a two tone barrel clasp on the necklace. The bracelet had the clasp replaced with a lobster clasp which I'm sure was easier to use on the bracelet than a barrel clasp. Both necklace and bracelet have red hand knotted thread between each glass bead. Glass beads are a mixture of sand, potash or soda, heated with lime, and invented in Egypt about 9,000 years ago. It was crafted into beads by the Egyptians and Romans. Glass beads are essential to adornment the world over and the trade of these beads are surrounded by secrecy. Glass bead making techniques are still passed down by word of mouth in Venice, where in 1292 glass makers were moved to the island of Murano and forbidden, on pain of death, to reveal their secrets. This would be a great addition to your vintage jewelry collection or make a great vintage gift!
