Rhinestone necklace with rhinestone ball ends from Mae's Millinery Shop. The necklace is formed from two (2) rows of small clear rhinestones set into silver metal.

Rather than closing at the back, there is a metal hook near one end that crosses over and attaches around the other end at the front chest.
