Antique Victorian MuranoGlass MicroMillefiori GoldBalls RedBeaded Necklace
About the Item
This antique late-Victorian Italian Murano-glass unsigned necklace features three oblong red beads with miniature multicolor swirled-stripe patterns made with the millefiori technique, along with rounds beads that include yellow-gold gilt brass fluted balls and glass in solid red or ochra.
Consistent with its estimated more than a century-old age, it is strung with a white-silk cord and fastens with a spring-ring clasp that was first used in the early 1900s, while there are a few specs of gold loss and verdigris at several bead holes. We date it no later than 1914 when gilt brass was still a popular choice to accent Arts-and-Crafts style glass jewelry.

- Antique HandPressedGlass European GoldFiligreeCapped Beaded Heavy NecklaceLocated in Chicago, ILThis antique rare hand-pressed-glass necklace features semi-translucent grape-green large beads that are capped with gilt-brass filigree. Based on the combination of bead seams, spring-ring clasp, and metal findings on the unmarked faux Chinese-jade necklace, it dates to the late Victorian period most likely from Western Europe. Around WWI, hand presses, which stamped molten glass into a mold to create a bead with a hole and a seam, were often used to produce costume jewelry as a cottage industry in Germany and the Czech region. This was while there was a lack of factory machine presses and finishing tumblers that used sand to polish out the seam lines. Another reason that the cloudy green beads can be identified as atypically hand-pressed is that they are more opaque and therefore harder and less prone to breaking during formation than fully-translucent glass, which was better suited for automated-machine pressing. Also the green beads are an unusual swirled color including white, which suggests that their production was more limited than machine-pressing would enable. Without the bead-seams, this necklace could be mistaken for one by Coco Chanel. Her 1920s couture...Category

- MiriamHaskell 1930s Hess TorsadeSet GiltFiligreeCap FauxPearls Earrings & ChokerBy Frank Hess for Miriam HaskellLocated in Chicago, ILDuring the Art Deco period, Miriam Haskell's first designer Frank Hess designed this blue-and-white glass-beaded hand-sewn torsade set of dangle earrings and a choker necklace, whose knotted string is capped with their characteristic Russian-gilt brass flora filigree. Coinciding with the American Great Depression, to offer some less expensive costume jewelry than her initial ready-to-wear styles featuring Parisian hand-crafted materials found in French couture, Haskell reduced the cost of some of her findings by locally sourcing stamped metal and incorporating hand-pressed glass beads from Germany and Czechoslovakia. With a loop, the line from hand pressing the glass can only be found on the blue beads, while the white ones are coated in an organic material like authentic French faux pearls. The ends of the textured cords that string the beaded set were frayed to form a fuzzy opaque dome that hides the knots attached to the filigree caps. No Haskell jewelry was signed before 1947. The unsigned necklace...Category
