60’s Venetian Millefiori Mosaic Bead Necklace silver slingbacks I can picture Princess DianaThis vintage necklace is from the seventies however the millefiori elbow bead is most likely antique. The history behind this type of piece is precisely why I love vintage jewelry Beads like this were conceived & crafted in Venice 1800's, then revered & traded in West Africa and then repurposed into jewelry & imported into the USA in the 1960's.
