    Sure looks 20s.

    About the rhinestones - how are they embedded? Would you happen to have a pic of them as well as the pearls?

    They seem to have metal closures which are then affixed with string. Thanks for your help : ) Screen Shot 2017-10-16 at 3.29.52 PM.png Screen Shot 2017-10-16 at 3.29.45 PM.png Screen Shot 2017-10-16 at 3.29.38 PM.png Screen Shot 2017-10-16 at 3.29.31 PM.png Screen Shot 2017-10-16 at 3.29.24 PM.png

    Hmmmm... I am a little suspicious of that colour - it seems a bit off for the 20s, and dyed lace is not a common thing from this period. It may have been redyed recently?
