Bohemian Style Pendant Necklace with Beaded Accents

This is a bohemian-style pendant necklace featuring a circular central pendant with an intricate design. The pendant itself is predominantly dark purple or burgundy, possibly made of resin or enamel, with a slightly textured or glittery finish that gives it depth. A central medallion or disc, likely crafted from aged brass or bronze-toned metal, is set into the main pendant. This central disc exhibits an ornate, possibly floral or geometric, pattern with subtle green and darker accents, and a small reddish stone or bead in its very center. The pendant hangs from a bail that appears to be integrated into the overall design, matching the aged metal tone. The necklace chain is not visible in its entirety, but the upper portion consists of a dark cord, possibly leather or waxed cotton. Below the main cord and above the pendant, there are decorative elements: two elongated, cylindrical wooden beads in a dark, possibly reddish-brown hue are strung on the cord. Below these, a cluster of smaller, faceted beads in a translucent purple or magenta color are arranged, interspersed with tiny dark spacer beads. A decorative metal element, possibly an S-hook or similar ornate piece, connects these beaded sections to the pendant's bail. The clasp, visible at the far end of the necklace, is a decorative hook-and-eye closure, again in the same aged metal tone. The overall aesthetic suggests a handcrafted or artisan piece, characterized by its mix of materials—metal, cord, likely wood, and glass or acrylic beads. The condition appears good, with no obvious signs of significant damage or repair, though the aged patina on the metal components is intentional, contributing to its vintage-inspired look. The piece has a rustic, earthy quality, and the combination of colors and textures points towards a modern bohemian or ethnic-inspired style.
