Hello Amir, thank you very much, I do appreaciate all the effort you made by fulfilling your promisse to me. This shows you are a very honest man and I hope others will now come and buy from you too as they know you can be trusted!! Shipping also was no problem at all and very secure and fast. Well done and many thanks! Marie.
All very positive: well done, both of you!
You`ve worked so hard at this task, Amir! I do hope you are a little rested now and can face life with greater equanimity.
I saw two similar beads in Marrakech a couple of days ago. It seems they travel far!
I wish you success in future trading, Amir.
Hello Amir, can you please tell me how these beads are normally worn ?
Is it on the neck or more likely on the wrist or, as I seem to remember, as a "bazu band" on the upper arm ?
And do they have a special significance?
Thanks Cam.
Cam, I would like to know the significance of the tureen Multan(?) beads which may be a little closer to home for you. Do you have any idea?
I have seen them strung both into a necklace and as bracelet on internet, not sure if they were original like this or restrung.
