I love this (8) strands of red pink lavender glass necklace. Beads are bright and just perfect for summer, winter, fall or spring. The necklace feels heavy and it is cold to the touch does indicate they could be glass. They are in excellent vintage condition. There are a couple of the small red rhinestones in the clasp that are missing however they are tiny tiny stones. You really don't even notice. The clasp could be worn over to the side for a different look. I do think that these are from the 1950s. Treat yourself and feel glamorous when you wear these around your neck. Hat is for sale but not includerd with this purchase. Measurements are as follows:

Length - 15 & 1/2" with clasp undone.
