Thank you for your help that’s more information than I was able to find you can help me out any time
You are welcome Teresa.
I have the exact same necklace. Was a gift to my mother-in-law from my father-in-law. Assume he purchased it while serving in the Navy in Japan.
Watch out, as there is a lot of fake Cinnabar out there. Usually a form of plastic. Do the hot needle test to see if you get a plastic smell. This one looks fancy and less likely to be "fake". It is a popular design in Asia and I don't think it is worth more than 200 dollars...BUT I am not a jeweler nor an appraiser.
I love it and want one too.
I have already taken into the Jewelry store it is all real I was looking at a website today that had one like mine and this is it here **************
This Beautiful Large and Heavy Custom Jade Necklace was purchased at an Estate Auction a view Years ago for 1.500 dollars. It is about 14 inches long when worn around the Neck.It has very detailed Filigree Work. The Jade Beads are about 1 inch in Diameter. This great looking Jade Necklace is offered for 995.00 dollars o.b.o.

I don't have a box for mind but if it's gonna make it worth that much I'll go and get one Although this is the second one I've seen that there asking this much for $$$$.
I have one that found in my grandmothers collection. I thought it was something special! Can you tell me what it was going for on the craigslist add. And maybe the website taht you saw yours on. I want to seel it, but not sure how much to ask. Thanks
