I had this necklace for a year and I'm wearing it today for the first time. I like it very much but it's very long (necklace itself measures 50cm + longest drop is 5,5cm high) and it only works well with sober clothing.
I believe it to be pink facetted czech glass. The clasp looks to be the original. It reads 'gold filled' although it looks silvery to me.
Anyway, I believe it to be made in the Bohemian region around the 1880-1920 period. Anyone a better guess?
Thanks!

Beautiful simple and sophisticated. Indeed it looks like silver and I think you are right about the pink facetted sczech glass.
Thanks a lot
Thanks Scandinavian pieces. I also have some art deco czech glass necklaces. I may post them another time soon.
My money would be on 1910-1920
I love it. Czech beads sounds right to me. Maybe Wilhem Klarr. (I think that's how it was spelled) It probably once was gold filled but the gold fill has all worn off.
Klaar maybe
