Multi-Strand Green Gemstone and Gold-Tone Beaded Necklace with Decorative Clasp

This item is a multi-strand beaded necklace, likely designed for a statement look. It features at least three distinct strands visible, with varying bead types and colors. One prominent strand consists of polished, spherical green beads, appearing to be jade or a similar green gemstone like aventurine, exhibiting a vibrant, consistent green hue and a smooth, lustrous surface. These beads are uniform in size, approximately 8-10mm in diameter. Another prominent strand incorporates larger, irregularly shaped, tumbled green gemstone beads (also likely jade or aventurine) interspersed with textured, gold-tone 'nugget' or 'floret' shaped beads. These gold-tone beads have a matte or brushed finish with a textured surface, suggesting they might be gilded metal or a gold-tone alloy rather than solid gold. Their organic, somewhat flattened teardrop or pebble shape adds to a natural aesthetic. A third, thinner strand visible on the far right consists of very small, irregular white beads, possibly seed pearls or shell fragments, strung together with fine gold-colored wire, indicating intricate wire-wrapping or stringing. The necklace is secured by a distinctive flat, rectangular box clasp made of silver-tone metal, possibly white gold or silver. The clasp features an ornate, deeply incised geometric pattern of interlocking squares or diamonds, adding a decorative element. The visible condition suggests good preservation with some minor wear to the metal components consistent with age and use. The gold-tone beads show some slight variation in their finish, which could be intentional or indicative of minor wear. No obvious damage such as chips, cracks, or significant tarnishing is apparent on the primary green beads. The style appears to be a blend of bohemian and classic, possibly dating from the mid-20th century to the late 20th century given the combination of natural gemstones and decorative metal components. The craftsmanship, particularly the intricate clasp and the varied stringing, indicates a well-made piece of costume or semi-fine jewelry.
