This necklace is a real eye catcher! All of the beads are translucent cobalt. The center bead is especially unique the way it was shaped and with the silver end-caps. The red beads are whiteheart trade beads. I added a couple of photos of the loose beads like the ones in the necklace for better viewing. There are 35 cobalt beads; some are round and some are vaselines. The necklace is strung on black leather cord and the end finished with silver cones. Hanging length is about 15".
