A dramatic antique Art Deco-style Czech glass sautoir necklace featuring richly colored foil art glass beads, pale UV-reactive glass accents, and long dangling bead drops. The necklace has the elongated silhouette and movement associated with 1920s flapper jewelry, with a striking mix of dark metal, glowing pale beads, and iridescent foil glass.
Style & Era Notes: This piece has strong Art Deco / Czech glass appeal, with a long sautoir form, dramatic drop, and collectible glass bead construction. The combination of foil art glass and UV-reactive beads makes it especially appealing for collectors of antique glass jewelry, flapper necklaces, and unusual Art Deco-era accessories.
Materials, Size & Details: Czech-style glass beads with foil art glass accents, UV-reactive pale glass beads, and dark metal chain construction. Approx. 20" long chain when closed, with approx. 10" total drop when laid flat. Approx. 46g. Please review photos for bead shape, glow, chain construction, clasp style, finish, scale, and condition.
Testing / Verification Note: Some beads fluoresce under blacklight, with a two-color UV reaction visible under testing. The pale beads show glow consistent with uranium glass, while the other UV-reactive effects are described conservatively as fluorescence rather than professionally certified glass composition.
Condition: Vintage/antique condition with normal age-appropriate wear. Beads, chain, and drops appear wearable, with any notable chips, cracks, restringing, discoloration, finish wear, or flaws shown in the photos or noted separately.
Styling Tip: Wear it long over a black dress, silk blouse, velvet jacket, slip dress, or simple cream knit to let the dramatic drop and glowing glass details stand out. It also displays beautifully as part of an Art Deco, Czech glass, or uranium glass jewelry collection.
Shop Note: Testing, material, and age notes are provided in good faith based on visible construction, seller attribution, and the tools available to Eratique Vintage. Unless specifically stated as professionally appraised, certified, or documented, gemstone, glass, metal, and age identifications should be considered our best assessment rather than a guarantee.
