Lapis & Celluloid Bead French Art Deco Necklace

This substanial French Art Deco necklace has tear-drop-shaped lapis glass beads that alternate with molded dark blue celluloid(?) beads and decorative brass spacers. The beads and spacers are strung on chain, which has stretched a bit. This stunning and unusual necklace closes with a bee-hive screw-in clasp, so typical on French pieces. This necklace was part of my personal collection. The colors are amazing!
