Lovely necklaces, soft and rich ...luscious. They look as if they have been recently strung...?
Dear Thelma …they might be recently strung …but the problem itself in Naga jewelry is to be strung and restrung over and over again ..by their owners….due to the delicate nature of it…..
the crotchet feels smooth and used …also the beads are not sharp……so i believe were not made for tourist market…but restrung in the country of their origin…Kisses
These are beauties...I especially love the two threads with the white and red beads on to add a "speckle" to the blue at the bottom of the necklace.
Thanx Charlotte ……kisses
Angelo, I agree with @ Charlotte. These beautiful classic necklaces has an added surprise point which does make it so much more personal. What a load of work to string these especially with such tiny seed beads. GR. Ingrid.
