Purple Plastic Bead Necklace on Stretch Cord

This is one loop of round purple plastic beads that let some light through, in tones from violet to lilac. The beads are nearly the same size and sit on a stretch cord, so there is no clasp. The photo shows it on a woven neck display. The listing gives no length.

Colored plastic beads are lightweight, everyday jewelry in markets across Indonesia and the rest of Southeast Asia, and a strand like this is an easy way to add a bright color to a plain outfit. Keep it out of hot sun and out of the wash, since elastic and plastic both wear quickly with heat.
