The beads are well-made with a smooth feel. Information about Cloisonné:Cloisonné is French for partitioned or compartmentalized, Each section of a bead houses various colors of enamel. These black Cloisonne Beads are metal beads with thin wire strips soldered onto the bead surface to create a design. The remaining open areas are then filled with various colors of enamel, creating truly unique and beautiful beads. Cloisonné jewelry designs are an ancient design and became popular in America in the mid-1800s,and continues to be admired for its unique beauty. When selecting Cloisonné beads, look for premium beads with a smooth surface, free of rough edges or protruding wires. Each section should be filled with enamel, featuring a uniform appearance with no divots or high spots. Look for beads crafted with precious metals, such as copper, that advertise their content. Cloisonné jewelry looks spectacular when showcased against simple swaths of dark colors, which allow the precious metals in the beads to shine. Wear Cloisonné jewelry alone or pair with a simple metal chain or bracelets. Don’t overdo it, avoiding busy fabric patterns, or overcrowding the beads with too many accessories. As for this particular necklace, I do not know when it was purchased. I am assuming it's from the 1970's. This necklace has its own original box. In handling it, it seems very sturdy and the box clasp works well. Some knots vary in stiffness. This necklace is ready to be worn as is or perhaps it can be dismantled for the beads for jewelry making. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you!
