Vintage Uranium Glass Necklace | Long Graduated Beads | c.1920s Vaseline Glass

This elegant vintage necklace is crafted from softly translucent uranium glass beads in a delicate pastel green, dating to the early 20th century, circa the 1920s–early 1930s. The necklace features beautifully graduated glass beads, traditionally hand-knotted between each bead, a technique used to protect and showcase fine glass. Its long opera length creates a classic Art Deco silhouette and allows it to be worn as a single statement strand or layered. Uranium glass was historically coloured using small quantities of uranium oxide, prized for its distinctive hue and optical qualities. Under ultraviolet light, the beads display a gentle green fluorescence, a characteristic feature of authentic early uranium glass. Finished with a period hook-and-eye clasp in unmarked metal, consistent with the age and style of the piece.
