Gorgeous 3 strand Necklace & earrings Set by Barclay

Aqua Poured Ribbed Glass & Murano Foil Pebble Beads 

Gorgeous glass beads are the key feature in this 3 strand necklace and matching earrings set.

Signed Barclay, the necklace features 3 graduated strands that are strung with glass pearls, Murano foil glass beads, and big, ribbed, poured glass beads. The Murano beads are fabulous, shimmering light aqua blue silver foils with brown accents in organic pebble shapes. Each measure approx. 14mm x 13mm, all are approx. the same size and shape. The aqua blue ribbed glass beads are huge! They each measure approx. 26mm long x 13mm across and all are about the same size. The glass pearl beads graduate in size with the largest measuring approx. 16mm round.

This set is in very good vintage condition. The glass Pearls are fine, no peeling or damage. The brass connectors & wire show a dark patina now as the silver plating is all gone. There is plating on the hook clasp which now shows some wear. There is slight loosening of the silk on one strand, nothing serious, still wearable, but noted. It could use a very gentle cleaning. The embossed brass connectors would look terrific if lightly polished so the upraised design areas could be highlighted.

The clip back earrings have matching beads which are hand wired onto filigree backings. The metal there is also brass that has been silver plated and which is mostly intact.

The top strand of the necklace is 15" long and with the 3" extender it measures 18" total adjustable length. The earrings measure approx. 1~1/8" round.

This set is beautiful and even more interesting because of the harder to find designer - Barclay. Even with the silver plated finish gone in said areas it looks stunning on and will make a wonderful addition to any vintage jewelry collection, especially the glass beads one.
