Antique Victorian Czech black glass bead mourning necklace 16"

16" Vintage Art Deco Czech glass hand beaded necklace with a super selection of beads. With black oval faceted and teardrop geometric hand faceted glass beads. With a central incised bicone rectangle glass bead. These are even older beads than Deco, probably made for Victorian mourning jewelry. Being handmade, they will have imperfections caused during the original manufacture. Silver tone spring clasp closer.  
This is a beautiful necklace with stunning beads in excellent condition, having recently been discovered originally factory packaged. However, as this necklace is nearly 100 years old, the cotton may well have weakened and it is always recommended to have these rare necklaces restrung. The clasp is also tainted.
