Light Blue Crackle Glaze Beaded Jewelry Piece

This item appears to be a section of a beaded piece of jewelry, likely a necklace or bracelet, featuring multiple light blue, squared-off barrel or cushion-shaped beads. Each bead is separated by smaller, metallic-colored spacer beads, which appear to be brass or an aged gold-tone metal due to their slightly dull, tarnished appearance. The primary beads are a soft, pastel blue color with a distinctly visible crackle glaze or craquelure effect across their surface, indicating a deliberate design choice or natural aging of the glaze. The crackle pattern is fine and intricate, covering the entire surface of each ceramic or glass bead. The beads exhibit a glossy finish, reflecting light well. Slight irregularities in the shape of the blue beads suggest they may be handmade or artisanal, rather than machine-manufactured with perfect uniformity. While generally good, some of the blue beads show minor scuffs, possibly indicating wear or slight loss of glaze in small areas. The metallic spacer beads also show some signs of age, consistent with their perceived material. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures visible in the image. This piece seems to be from the mid-20th century or later, perhaps reflecting a vintage or bohemian aesthetic commonly associated with such materials and finishes. The craftsmanship appears to be of decent quality, with the uniform spacing and consistent bead shapes contributing to a cohesive design.
