Trifari Japanese Foil and Milk Glass Bead Necklace
This fabulous and hard to find Trifari glass bead necklace features 12mm vintage Japanese foil glass beads alternating with 10mm faceted AB faceted milk glass beads. The foil glass beads sparkle with reds, blues and greens! The clasp is original, but not the beads in the clasp. They were originally all foil glass beads, but I was unable to locate any of these in smaller sizes. My answer was to use true, vintage ruby glass beads alternating with milk glass beads with the identical finish and faceting. The glowing vintage ruby glass brings out the red in the foil glass beads and gives this fabulous piece a lot of pop! You can wear the ornate clasp in the back or on the side as a focal piece. The shortest strand of the necklace is 27" including the clasp. These beads are weighty as they are all glass.
