A grounded vintage beaded necklace composed of warm, earth-toned stone beads arranged in a gentle graduating pattern. The beads range from small to larger round forms toward the center, creating a subtle visual weight and a natural focal point without a pendant.
The stones display rich sandy tans, ochres, soft browns, and darker veining, with organic surface variations that feel geological rather than polished-to-perfection. The rhythm of size and tone gives the necklace a quiet, steady presence — understated but deeply tactile.
This is a piece that reads as elemental and wearable, rooted in material rather than ornament. It feels intuitive, everyday, and quietly intentional — something chosen for texture and grounding rather than display.
Likely mid- to late-20th century vintage, aligned with natural stone jewelry trends that favored organic materials and simple forms.
Based on visual inspection, this necklace appears to include:
Measures approximately 23 inches end to end; when worn as a continuous loop, the hang length is about 11 inches.
Natural stone beads, likely jasper (possibly picture jasper or a related sedimentary stone)
Small metal spacer beads (brass- or bronze-tone)
Gold-tone hook clasp (simple and functional)
The stones appear undyed, with natural matrix lines and color variation.
