This is a glass bead necklace. I bought it because I liked the simplicity of the red and white (semi-transparent) beads and how they change with the light, but I haven't worn it in a long time and it's been stored at home. It's clean with no noticeable scratches or stains, but the metal parts have some discoloration due to aging. The case is for reference only and has scratches; it is not included in the sale. I will ship it without the case. Please consider this item knowing that it is a used item.
