1.UNMARKED.  Single strand of graduated clear faceted crystals (not aurora borealis).  Necklace: 17 inches.
2. JAPAN.  Single strand of glass graduated pearls with rhinestone rondells in the center section. Badly needs cleaning.  Necklace:  16 inches.  
3. UNMARKED.  Double strand of opaque cream-colored beads with pale blue faceted clear crystals, rhinestone rondelles and silvertoned spacers.  The clasp has pale blue rhinestones.  Very effective.  Necklace: 16 inches. 
4. JAPAN.  Triple strand of graduated glass pearls in very good condition.  Necklace: 18 inches.   
5.UNMARKED.  Single strand of heavy and wide (1 inch) silvertone metal with large interlocking links.  Very dirty; seems like tarnished sterling but I can find no marks.  Necklace: 18 inches. 
6. PAT 937835 (hard to read).  Single strand of bright red graduated lucite beads with gold spacers.  Necklace;  24 inches.
7. UNMARKED.  Necklace, Bracelet & Pierced Earrings.  All matching and formed of goldtone replica coins on a goldtone chain.  Coins are British I believe.  Necklace:  29 inches,  Bracelet: 7.5 inches.  Post earrings: dangles 2.25 inches from post. 
8. UNMARKED.  Single strand necklace with silver (acts like sterling but I can't find a mark) beads and chain with pink stone birds and silver elephant.  Necklace:  18 inches.     
9. UNMARKED.  Eight strands of small green and blue plastic beads.  Very long.  Necklace:  50 inches.

12. BERGERE by KAREN REED.  Single strand of tuquoise, wood and metal beads with three large (2 inches in diameter) brushed goldtone disks as a center piece.  Disks are each marked BERGERE while KAREN REED appears on a hang tag as designer.  She is well recognized as a BERGERE designer.  Very nice unusual piece worth a second look.  Necklace:  15 inches. 
13. UNMARKED.  Single strand of small braided beads.  I believe these are tumbled garnets.  Very nice.  Necklace:  25 inches.

The items are in good to excellent preowned vintage condition showing only age-appropriate signs of wear and use.  These are not new and have definitely been worn. All clasps are in good working order.  I noticed no missing stones or beads. Any problems are noted in the description. All pieces could use a good careful cleaning.  Please zoom into the pictures.

The pictures are part of the description, so please examine them carefully for your best determination of quality and condition.  Please ask for more pictures if you'd like.
