This 17" necklace just must be meant for a woman who favors the Golden Bears of Cal. Why else would these beads pale (just in color) so in comparison with #257? Ah, just kidding folks. This is a lovely necklace with a center bead with gold inclusions, and other blue beads in graduated size and depth of color. Graduated round gold beads and barrel beads finish off a stunning look, with barrel closure.
