This is from my collection. I've had it since the early 90s. The gold beading and sequins are on a lightweight fine black net of some sort. I remember wearing it one time with a black velvet dress. It needs to go out more!

I don't see any missing beads, but that doesn't mean there aren't some. So much work went into making this. If you measure from the tip of one tie to the tip of the other it's 45". The long part is 12" long. 

This ships in a small box to protect it.
