Earth Globe Pendant Necklace

The item is a pendant necklace featuring a glass pendant depicting the Earth. The pendant has approximate dimensions of 1 inch in height and 0.75 inches in width. The glass orb is primarily blue, representing oceans, with areas of orange and red representing landmasses and perhaps atmospheric effects. The pendant is encased within a dark-colored metal cage or setting formed by thin metal wires that cradle the glass. This cage connects to a jump ring at the top, which attaches to the necklace chain. The chain is a rope-style chain, appearing to be made of a silver-toned metal. The overall condition appears to be fair, showing visible signs of wear such as scratches on the metal cage and possibly on the glass orb. There is also a visible patina on the metal, suggesting age or extended use. There are no discernible maker's marks or stamps visible in the image. Based on the design and appearance, the necklace likely dates from the mid to late 20th century, possibly from the 1960s or 1970s, a period when globe motifs were popular. The craftsmanship appears functional rather than high-end, indicative of mass production. One unique aspect is the specific coloration of the landmasses in orange and red, which is not typical of standard globe representations.
