Each glass bead is supported by ornate gilt-metal effect filigree caps at the poles. The larger beads are separated by small gold-toned faux pearl? spacers. The construction appears to be on aged thread or wire. The necklace is secured with a gilt-metal effect barrel screw clasp. No maker marks or signatures are visible on the clasp or the components.
