This magnificent vintage necklace features 12 turquoise nuggets surrounded by silver beads of varying shapes and sizes. The majority of beads are bench beads that show the connecting seam. The approximate length of the necklace is 34" and the closure is a spring ring clasp. This item was included in a donation to The Art Resource Center in Tempe Arizona. The ARC is a nonprofit that collects reusable discards from individuals and gives them to teachers and other nonprofit entities for the purpose of making art. We are aligning with the donor's intent to support The ARC while finding a more appropriate new home for this valuable item. So not only do you get a terrific new treasure, you are supporting a worthwhile cause!
