  • recently i had a bracelet of small ones like these to rethread for someone= i'd suggest Indian or Balinese, where for a time some in the '80s-90s lovely traditional and popular styles in silver with granulation/decoration were made. what are they threaded on? is it ribbon, elastic,  or more like a hank of threads?

  • Thanks very much, Stephany,

    It`s strung on chain immediately next to the clasp then on nylon from the end cone bead onwards.

    The beads are quite heavy but I don`t know if they are plaster filled.

  • Very attracitve beads.
