Silver Mercury Glass Beaded Christmas Garland 8 Feet
This old silvered mercury glass Christmas tree bead garland measures 106", nearly nine feet long. It's made up of double beads strung on cotton cording with wire and foil cardboard disc end stoppers. The beads are about 9mm, roughly 1/4 inch diameter. All broken beads were carefully removed from the string before measuring. Some of the mercury silvering has deteriorated, causing a slight pearly transparent effect on some of the beads while others have darkened, giving the garland a beautiful antique look you just can't duplicate with a modern Christmas garland.
Circa: 1930s - 1940s
