I’m sorry but I didn’t follow what you meant in the first post: “it looked this way when she got so [implying therefore] it was older when she got it.” What in particular does “this way” refer to as indicating it was already older when purchased?

Sorry about that the woman I got it from bought it when she worked at the department of the interior in DC in the 80s. The woman worked in the gift shop at the department of the interior building where they sold new as well as old pawn this is a piece of old pawn that they had and it looked this way when she got it. Nicely worn and loved

@Steve I had to look up the word “tubule” as I haven’t seen it before. Pretty amazing that you located a necklace that’s almost identical to the necklace posted in this thread. Hopefully, all this info is helpful to @Lessonslearned.
