A striking vintage multi-strand necklaces composed of repeated cylindrical beads in warm terracotta, deep umber, and soft cream tones. The strands are punctuated by small round spacer beads in pale ivory, creating a steady visual rhythm and a beautiful sense of movement when worn.
These necklaces drape in multiple loops, forming an elongated, sculptural silhouette. The restrained color palette and repetition give it a quiet strength — graphic, earthy, and timeless rather than decorative. This is a piece that feels considered and bodily, meant to be worn and felt rather than simply seen.
Likely mid- to late-20th century, with influences from folk, modernist, or craft-based jewelry traditions.
Materials
Based on visual characteristics, this necklace appears to be made of:
When worn as a continuous loop, the hang length is about 23 inches.
Terracotta or clay tube beads (reddish and brown tones)
Light-colored ceramic or stone beads (rectangular and round spacers)
Small round spacer beads (likely glass or ceramic)
Strung on cord (possibly cotton or nylon)
Materials are matte and tactile, emphasizing texture over shine.
