Rare Antique Spanish Bog Oak Necklace Victorian Mourning Jewelry carved. The Bog oak demands were high when Queen Victoria was in mourning. The supply and demand became overwhelming until Spain started producing spanish bog oak to help keep up with demand.
The Spanish Bog Oak is an inferior product to Whitby Jet. It is know to Crack, break. This necklace, does have cracks in some areas. So for this to have survived. Makes it a unique necklace. End to end it measures 30 inches. It was in poor condition.(See photos) The cording was rotted. Some of the beads were so dry they cracked with big splits, broke. I restrung on cotton crochet thread.
Just to keep it together. I removed the damaged beads but will include them in the lot. In case you want to restring.I'm not a beader and I'm certain my knots for tying are inferior to a professional. Original clasp and beads just new threading. I strive to be as accurate, transparent, as possible.
