Personalized 'Kare Bear' Beaded Necklace with T-Rex Charm

This is a hand-assembled, multi-color beaded necklace featuring a whimsical and personalized design. The piece is constructed on a flexible cord and utilizes a variety of bead types, primarily consisting of small spherical matte-finish beads in a repeating palette of dusky purple, peach, and muted teal. Interspersed throughout the length are larger, flat lemon-yellow circular beads, some of which feature a black-inked 'smiley face' icon on both sides. The focal point of the necklace is a section of silver-toned round alphabet beads that spell out the phrase 'KARE BEAR'. Attached centrally below the nameplate is a small, green molded plastic dinosaur charm, specifically a Tyrannosaurus Rex, suspended from a metal jump ring. The necklace appears to be of modern construction, likely from the early 21st century (c. 2010s-2020s), mimicking the 'Y2K' revival or 'Kandi' style frequently seen in youth festival fashion. The condition appears fair to good with slight surface wear on the plastic beads and possible fading of the black ink on the smiley faces and letters. The craftsmanship indicates a hobbyist or custom-made origin rather than a mass-market luxury item, emphasizing kitsch aesthetic and personal sentiment over precious materials.
