Congrats JKP! It was meant to be yours. It's classically elegant and very "you":) Love the detailing on the clasp and gold beads. So shiny and beautiful. How long is the necklace? Actually better yet, please post a mod shot when you have time - would love to see it on you:)
I can definitely see similarities with this Ming necklace and your other necklace.

Okay jadies.... You all know how much I love beads, especially the ones with gold wire between the beads... so here's my grail necklace! I was in talks with a seller a few years back when I was new to jade and was trying to get him to take a little bit off....he had just agreed to a lower price when someone else did a BIN on his asking price. I have only seen it at outrageous prices since then and regretted just not getting it then. Finally found it at a more reasonable price, though that conversation we had about designer vs. no-name went through my head, haha

Presenting...

Ming's black bead and gold filigree bead necklace! ....I have it with the other black bead necklace I have, which I like to think of as an unmarked Ming's (need to get it restrung, though).
