Vintage condition, may have minor scratches. (Please look closely at the photo). One bead is darker than the others, possibly from other necklaces or more exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays over many years! Most of the beads are not translucent (some are barely transparent, but there are few of them). This is because a thick cherry-colored layer has formed (due to exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays over many years of wear). All beads have been tested with baking soda. The inside of the beads is yellow. See the photos for details.

f you have any questions, please ask!
