This necklace is new and never worn and has the original Made in Czechoslovakia hang tag.  I acquired it while in port in Cairo on a ship in the early 1980s. 

The beads are bright red, extremely glossy, and do not have any mold lines. The beads are very weighty as far as glass beads go but the necklace is not heavy to wear. There is a wide variety of unique large bead shapes.  The beads have a high gloss shine and the reflective look you see in some images above is just light reflection. The beads are perfectly smooth and the color is solid and not variegated. 

Finished with an easy-to-use gold metal lobster clasp, the necklace is 26" or 66 cm long. The longest oblong beads are 1" or 26 mm long. The necklace is in pristine clean like new condition with no imperfections or flaws. 

Comes gift wrapped and shipped in a new luxury presentation necklace box.
