Vintage Tiger’s Eye Modernist Beaded Necklace 20" Graduated Carved Gemstone

This vintage tiger’s eye necklace features an unusually sculptural arrangement of individually carved gemstone beads, including elongated faceted ovals, rounded beads, and sharply profiled disc and saucer forms. The graduating geometric arrangement creates a bold modernist design while highlighting the natural golden chatoyancy and banding of the tiger’s eye. It dates to approximately the 1960s–1970s and exemplifies the era’s interest in natural materials and strong, architectural forms.

Condition is very good vintage condition with light age-appropriate wear. The silver-tone clasp shows minor surface wear. Any notable wear or imperfections are described and photographed for accuracy.
