Charming vintage three-strand torsade-style beaded necklace marked Japan, featuring a mixed array of beads in warm earth tones — creamy white, peach, coral, butterscotch yellow, and soft brown shell or stone chips paired with smooth round moonglow-style yellow beads. Gold-tone seed bead spacers are strung between the larger beads, adding shimmer and movement to the strands. The three twisted strands create a rich textural look that drapes beautifully.
