I agree fully with Akkie!
I think it's very unusual but was not an easy sell to most.. I guess being it was not just a necklace made it less wearible? I thought many people would like it,, was sold first time I offered but not everyone liked it. it is both primitive and also has filigree , set stones and enameling.. It's not everyone's cup of tea but as an ethnographic item it is quite interesting.
Linda I dream of one day being able to see your collection and touch all these treasures. I travel with each photo
Most of these things that I have posted recently are in new homes now. I have many different types of items not only jewelry but cloths and furniture and objects all things from all over. Since this is really only an ornament sight I took the liberty of posting costumes since so many of what we know are ornaments and costumes they go together but other things to me are as important and interesting from all over the world.. It is really nice people posting their own things , it's very rare to be able to see it. and the more one sees the better one learns.
very beautiful. i like the quantity of beautiful details. is it from india ??
