This stunning raspberry red and silver foiled glass dangle necklace was made in Czechoslovakia in the 1930s Art Deco period.The hand made glass jewelry of the Glabonz district of Czechoslovakia was famed for its quality in the early 20th century and this is a lovely and unusual example. Each hand made bead is slightly different with subtle swirls and color changes that give the necklace great individuality.

The central circular glass cabouchon is the most amazing color - pools of foiled raspberry red glass on a silver flecked ground. This central glass section is claw set in a brass mount and has three glass dangles attached to the base consisting of round and droplet shaped glass beads with metal hoop links between. The glass droplets are very pretty swirls in shades of red and bands of applied foiled glass. The main necklace is made of red glass beads with two larger foiled band glass beads that are joined with elongated brass diamond shapes and hoop links. The clasp is a ring bolt hoop fastener.

The necklace is in good vintage condition with areas of loss to the foiled applied glass bands. I believe the brass may once have had a silver wash but this has worn away over time and the metal is now a uniform soft brassy gold color. The clasp is firm and secure. Unmarked.

A really pretty example of foiled Czech glass jewelry that is highly wearable and equally collectible.

total length 412mm (16.25 inches)
length of pendant 52mm (2 inches)
diameter of central glass cabouchon 13mm (0.5 inches)
