It's got 5 stones on it.

The stones look green.

It has a chain, and a clasp on that chain.

It has been photographed in the dark.

My guess would be: an amazonite, a malachite, a lapis, a carnelian and a grey agate. Maybe the lapis and the carnelian are dyed. This multi colored stone look was popular in the 1970s and briefly before, occurring often with and as a stylistic offshoot of various Egyptian revival styles. . So my guess would be from that time or before. The metal has a luster which reminds me of old gold.

A close-up photo of the components would be helpful.
Is there a marking on the clasp?

Reading the marks is 90% of the story here.
Do you have a magnifying glass?

Now I think the green one is a chrysoprase or a dyed green agate instead of malachite.
