Czech glass 1950's, missing some beads and poorly re-strung. The reason you would know that it was re-strung is that originally these necklaces were all strung with the rose tops turned the same way. This one has the roses turned in opposite directions at the front which looks nice but is not the original stringing. Photo courtesy of: ~Belle
