VINTAGE 19” NATURAL GREEN MALACHITE BEAD NECKLACE

Up for sale is a wonderful vintage necklace made from natural green malachite, and strung sometime in the 1980's or possibly earlier. Malachite stone is quite hard to source even in today’s gem and jewelry shows, and it's especially hard to find beads of this size. It has small green seed bead in between the larger beads, and it ends in a gold filled filigree box clasp. The beads are off round and have nice striation and variation. Overall, the necklace is in good condition Smoke free home
