Ladakh belt detail of carnelian

Posted by Linda Pastorino on February 28, 2013 at 12:17am

Very rare belt from Ladakh with encrusted carnelians, coral and turquoise.. During the 80;s and 90's many pieces were copied using old fabric and old componants,, many items made up ftom these things, like big padded necklaces, headdresses and vests. This is not one of that ilk, which makes it very rare.
