Description

The listing, Vintage beaded necklace, needs repair has ended.

Whoa this is a lot of beads here! This is a vintage beaded rope necklace and it is LOOOOOONG! I have it all swirled around to save space with a pile of loose beads in the middle. The main part is over 4 1/2 FEET long. I am not sure what the beads are made of. The appear to be metallic coated plastic, but I am not an expert. The color is very tricky to describe because it changes in light. You can kinda tell by the second picture. This is very pretty. --- A talented person could fix it up or cut it down into a smaller necklace and a bracelet or a few to match. lol I have had this for many years but not sure just how long. I hope that someone can get some life out of this and enjoy it. : )

Questions & Comments

I sure wish we knew more of what kind of beads they were. Are they cool or warm to the touch? I know that sounds stupid but glass beads tend to be cool to the touch and plastic beads are not, if that helps at all. I hate to get them and find out that they are not the kind of beads that I use and need. Thank you and if you can help with my question that would be great.

If i win this, I'll break it down to make smaller PC's and mix beads w/other beads to make other type of projects!
