A beautiful and very smart 18ct gold necklace that was made circa 1940 in France. It is composed of round graded beads that go from very small to quite large. There is interesting cup shaped detail on either side of the the larger beads. They have been strung on an 18ct gold chain. It can be worn on a daily basis
