Tiger's Eye and Gold-Toned Bead Toggle Necklace

This is a statement necklace featuring alternating polished spherical Tiger's Eye beads and smooth cylindrical gold-toned metal spacers. The necklace appears to be approximately choker to princess length, designed to sit relatively close to the neck. Each Tiger's Eye bead exhibits a characteristic chatoyancy, displaying varying shades of golden brown, dark brown, and black, with the fibrous bands of the mineral visible on their polished surfaces. The beads are uniform in size, suggesting a meticulous selection process. The gold-toned cylindrical spacers are sleek and highly reflective, providing a striking contrast to the organic patterns of the Tiger's Eye. These cylindrical elements are of equal length and diameter, indicating consistent manufacturing. The construction appears to be strung on a sturdy cord or wire, with the beads and spacers evenly distributed along its length. The clasp is a gold-toned toggle bar and ring (T-bar) design, a classic and secure type of closure. There are no readily visible maker's marks or signatures on the clasp or any other component. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of significant wear, chips, or scratches on the beads. The metal spacers and clasp show a bright, consistent finish, suggesting good preservation or relatively new condition. The aesthetic points to a modern or contemporary style, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, emphasizing natural materials combined with clean, metallic lines. The craftsmanship seems to be of a commercial quality, with well-formed beads and uniformly finished metal components.
