Two-Strand Ridged Bead Necklace or Bracelet

The item is a two-strand necklace or bracelet composed of numerous ridged, gold-toned spherical beads. The beads appear to be uniform in size and shape, each featuring horizontal grooving or ridging around its circumference. The metal appears to be a bright, somewhat brassy gold color, but there is no visible indication of material composition such as a hallmark or stamp. The strands are connected at one end by a clasp mechanism consisting of a lobster claw clasp and a small extension chain with larger oval links, allowing for adjustable length. Both the clasp and extension chain are also gold-toned and visually match the beads. The condition appears good overall, though the image is taken within a plastic bag, making a precise assessment of surface condition challenging. There are no obvious signs of damage like broken links or missing beads visible in the image. The style of the beads suggests a potentially vintage aesthetic, though it could also be a modern piece referencing older designs. Without clear markings or further context, determining the exact age and manufacturer is impossible. The overall craftsmanship of the beads and the assembly appear to be of moderate quality, typical of costume jewelry or mass-produced items. There is no visible unique or unusual aspect beyond the repeating ridged bead pattern.
