Vintage 1970s Pink and White Bead Necklace, Hand Tied Wooden Beads, Long Boho Sautoir, 27 Inch Drop Statement Necklace
DESCRIPTION
A beautiful vintage hand-tied necklace featuring graduated pink and white beads arranged along a soft cream-coloured cord.
The beads have a distinctive two-tone ombré effect, ranging from creamy white to vibrant raspberry pink. Larger statement beads are interspersed with smaller round beads and silver-tone spacers, while sections of exposed cord give the necklace a wonderfully fluid, handcrafted appearance.
With an impressive drop of approximately 27 inches, this is a wonderfully long necklace that slips easily over the head without requiring a fastening. It can be worn at its full dramatic length or gently looped and arranged to create a layered look.
A characterful piece of vintage artisan jewellery with a relaxed 1970s bohemian feel, perfect for adding colour and texture to a simple outfit.

CONDITION

There is age-related surface wear, rubbing, marks and colour variation to some of the beads. The silver-tone spacer beads have some tarnishing and surface wear, while the hand-tied cord shows minor signs of age and previous use.
The individual beads and cord sections may require gently arranging when the necklace is worn.
As with all vintage jewellery, there may be minor signs of age and previous wear. Please examine all photographs carefully, as these form an important part of the description.
