BEAUTIFUL Vintage Sterling Silver Graduated Bead Necklace Oval Bead *HEAVY Over 210 Grams* VERY UNIQUE. It is 19 5/8 from end to end.

This Looks Like Navajo or Taxco. Unmarked as far as I can see.

This has been re-strung with silver cable. Starting from the top bead (clasp bead) the 2 round beads on either side is silver over copper but the rest of them (the Heavy beads) test as Sterling Silver and jeweler verified. This is unique as the Sterling beads are oval in shape and SOLID, not hollow... which is why it is heavier at over 210 grams. The largest and main bead is 1 1/4 inches long by about 7/8 inch wide. The smallest oval bead is also 1 1/4 inches long but is 3/4 inch wide.

The round bead closest to the clasp has a small ding in it, See pic.
