This beautiful necklace has a wonderful variety of bead shapes. There are orange and light-lavender molded plastic beads ("fruit salad" style), round black beads with ornate bead caps, irregular shaped metal beads with a pattern on them, and smaller black beads with many faceted edges. The longest strand (without the extension) is 16" long and the shortest 13". The extension is 2 1/2" long, and the hook clasp is clearly marked "W. Germany." The necklace is in excellent condition.
