Very, very pretty! The etched glass remind some of some 20s and 30s necklaces I have seen, but I am no jewelry expert.

Linda, I think it's definitely a necklace and you are probably correct that the closure broke. Many French necklaces have barrel clasp closures that thread or screw together like this one in my personal collection:
Can you tell what material is the necklace "strung" on?
I think your necklace may be French, and, yes, I love it!

Linda, I sent the photos along to a friend of mine who specializes in jewelry.
She confirms it to be French...from the 20s or 30s and either a Gripoix or Rousselet piece.

I'm wondering if this other lovely piece was meant to clip onto the straps at the top bodice area of a 30s gown and have the pink pearls hang down the back of it.
I think this piece is an unsigned Miram Haskell. It's possible it is meant to be worn the way Mary Jane described - or the way Linda described wearing it. It's really short for a lariat style necklace. I think the decorative clips are definitely meant to be featured.
My piece is glass.

Back to your original piece, my friend did write to add that as it has no closure, it most likely was restrung.

That is an amazing page of Miriam Haskell jewelry...I spotted your piece, Linda!
