A glorious necklace of Victorian banded agate beads that have been professionally restrung onto black silk with gold-plated clasp. If you would like the clasp replacing with a solid gold one, please message for a quote.
The natural bands of colour in the beads are so beautiful and range from almost black to chocolate and caramel browns to the prominent white central bands of each one. 
Most of the beads are in near perfect condition. There are a few with minor abrasions but you have to hunt these out and they do not detract in any way from the beauty of the necklace.
The beads are graduated in size with the largest being in the centre at the front. 
Diameter of agate beads: the largest - 1.9cm graduation down to the smallest - 0.9cm
Length: 57cm / 22.5” approx
Weight: 108g approx
There are a set of matching earrings - a single agate bead each on 9ct gold hooks. They are not quite ready to list but please enquire if interested.
