Antique Venetian Millefiori African Trade Beads Beaded Necklace

Description

Here is an unusual Antique Venetian Millefiori African Trade beads beaded necklace. Unusual in that the person who strung this beauty kept the theme of RED beads but utilized different beads with different murina. 12 of the beads match. The lower 6 and the upper 8. The in between beads are multi-murine beads (6 of them) and two that only match each other. PLUS the large pendant tear drop bead has one murina that does not match the others. Phew!
Necklace is 22" long with the tear drop bead 23.5" long. The tear drop bead measures 30 mm long. The two elongated millies are 40 mm long. Smallest round millies 8 mm. Solid red drawn beads are 4 mm. This piece has an age appropriate brass screw together clasp. It looks like the beads are strung on wire. There is a bit of it sticking out from one bead (4th down from top). See the 6th picture. This may mean at one point the wire broke. Not sure though because this is the way the necklace came to me.  Please study the pictures
