Ebony and Ivory Bead Necklace Vintage

This vintage necklace features two traditional favorites, ebony and ivory beads. The beads are alternating, with the ebony beads being 10mm in size and the ivory are 5mm. This Mid-century Modern necklace was imported before the ivory ban. The ivory beads have Schraeger lines and cross hatching can be seen on some of them. The beads have a lovely warm and yellowed patina consistent with older ivory that has been worn. It has a traditional screw clasp closure.

• Circa 1950's Pre-Ban
• Length: 16 inches long
