A collection of costume jewellery comprising necklaces, bracelets, and beads in a diverse range of materials and styles. The assortment includes various beaded items such as faceted black glass jet-style beads, simulated pearls, and turquoise-coloured magnesite or howlite. Several multi-strand seed bead necklaces are present alongside polychrome art glass, molded plastic, and large wooden spherical beads.

Metal elements include gold-tone and silver-tone base metal chains, featuring heavy articulated links, “snake” chains, and multi-strand tassels. A prominent piece is a large bright green necklace composed of graduated oval plastic beads with a central floral element featuring layered white petals and blue floral accents. Also included are a green heart-shaped pendant, various rhinestone-embellished pieces, and items with enamel detailing.

The lot contains a mix of mid-20th-century styles and contemporary fashion jewellery. While various clasps and hang tags are present, no maker’s marks or signatures are legible. A white adhesive label with black printed text reading SHELBYS AUCTIONEERS LOT 246 01132502626 is adhered to the green heart pendant.
