Rose Quartz Bead Necklace with Gold Spacer Beads

This is a continuous strand (matinee or opera length) necklace featuring approximately 80 to 90 spherical semi-precious rose quartz beads. Each quartz bead is approximately 8mm to 10mm in diameter, exhibiting a soft, pale pink to milky white translucency with natural internal inclusions, crystalline veining, and clouding typical of the quartz variety. Interspersed between each gemstone bead is a small, polished yellow-toned metal spacer bead, approximately 3mm in size. While the specific karat cannot be determined from the image, the spacers have a high-luster gold finish without significant tarnish, suggesting either gold-filled or high-quality gold plating. The necklace appears to be strung on a durable jewelry wire or silk cord, although it lacks a visible clasp, indicating it is likely designed to be pulled over the head. The overall construction displays a uniform rhythm and professional tension, with no obvious gaps between beads. Minor surface wear and micro-scratches are visible on the metal spacers under magnification, consistent with light previous use. The piece reflects a classic, feminine aesthetic commonly found in fine boutique jewelry from the late 20th century, approximately 1980-2000. Its quality is characterized by the consistent sizing of the hand-selected stones and the regular repetition of the metal accents.
