This one is a real treasure!
I purchased the crosses all from one collection in India. I had never seen those again after that. I combined handblown venetian glass beads that were old with other Indian silver trinkets and my grandmothers cross on the left (filigree one) and ST. Christopher medal.The other silver medals are Indian. I have not polished it in years.. The hearts on the back are from Himachel Pradesh.
Really nice that you added your grandmother's pieces. I love the colors and textures.
Very unique and remarkable fro sure!
