Scrabble Bead Necklace Earrings Set Japanese Vintage HTF BeadRage

This set is immaculate. I couldn't tear them apart for just the beads - would have been a crime. Lovely minty spring summer green. The necklace is 16" with the extender chain. There is a clear crystal spacer bead every 3 spaces. The hook is stamped Japan.  The larger clips are the matching set. Also stamped Japan on the clip. I had another set of vintage smaller clips - also scrabble and pearl that I thought I'd add to this set. Also pristine and also stamped Japan. Best guess late 50's early 60's. Don't know what scrabble beads are? Most don't either. Sometimes call End of the Day. These beads are so hard to find now - just try. While the bead is still hot it's rolled on the rod picking up those lovely snowflakes. Only set I have of course.
