Don't get this Rose Petal Necklace Wet!

A friend recently showed me a necklace that she inherited from her Great Grandmother from the 1920's.  It was a pretty faint pink color and the beads were made from actual rose petals!  She later emailed me a link to one she saw on Ruby Lane and I was so excited, I bought it.  When it came in the mail the other day, I put it on right away.  The necklace is a light lavender and came with instructions to not get it wet or it would dissolve.  Such an interesting piece, I love that it is made of such delicate material and has survived so long.
