Hand-Blown Multi-Colored Blue Flat Round Disc Glass Bead and Sterling Silver Bead Necklace, 16+3" Extender

Sport a symphony of blue with this hand-blown glass bead necklace. The round, flat, transparent glass beads appear in various shades of blue, with floral patterns in contrasting accent colors. Small sterling silver spacer beads separate the smooth glass beads and add a touch of shine. The necklace is finished with a sterling silver lobster clasp and features an extender chain for an adjustable length of between 16 and 19 inches.

I ordered this for my 14 year old niece for Christmas and have not gifted it as yet, but I'm sure she will love it. I can just see it on an orange or yellow tee...striking with her blond hair.

To me, it has more of a Summery look to it. That doesn't matter although it's Christmas. This is the perfect necklace for a teenage girl, and it's also one that they could wear forever.

The silver and the clasp are very nice and the necklace appears to be very good quality. The colors are fantastic, ranging from almost a cobalt blue to torquoise with lighter shades of green and blue in between. There is a little dot of orange accent in some of the glass. I also like the little silver ball between each hand blown disc. I love it that they are transparent. I also like the fact that it can be made shorter or longer by adjusting the chain. This necklace certainly has a hand made feel about it!

It came in a small cardboard box lined with a square of cotton, typical of most department store jewelry. The necklace was inside a nice dark velvet pouch with a draw string. As far as the packaging goes, it would have been nice to have a little description included that said "hand blown glass".

A tiny bow tied to the strings of the velvet pouch will make for a much more impressive presentation than wrapping up the crummy box which incloses the nice pouch.

It ended up costing me $22 with free shipping and the "special deal" under the description. It was a SCORE!! It looks much more like $35 or $40. Not your typical cheap looking stuff. In fact it truly looks like a "keepsake"!
