Hi there folks. Returning to CW five months later with a glassbead necklace. I need help. I'm wondering if this might be a WMF MYRA Glass Necklace, German Art Deco? I have seen photos of such necklaces with the same type of clasp and beads. These are deffinetly glass of high quality. The beads are not exactly the same so they look handmade. The beads are frosted glass and looks like ice. It is about 48 cm long according to the seller. I haven't messured yet. Am still just looking at the beads. Pleased to hear your thoughts even if you have another idea or view. Thanks!

stunning!!!
Thanks Gillan, yes that is interesting! Thankyou Sean and Valentino for your respons and you who have loved this post.
Hi, Lovely necklace! The beads certainly bear a resemblance to WMF, but I looked my various WMF necklaces over carefully and here are two other characteristics on all of the necklaces:
1. there are small round metal spacer beads between the glass beads
2. the necklaces are strung on chain, not thread
Of course, it is certainly feasible that the beads were restrung at some point. the barrel clasp looks similar to those on WMF necklaces. Hope this helps!
