    Beautiful necklace  Peter. I love all its details and the way the amulets placed. Thanks for posting this interesting piece.

    I agree Peter, really beautiful.

    WOW!  Congratulations Peter, this is a rare and spectacular necklace.  Are the dark parts niello or deep tarnish?

    Dear Mustafa, Nada and Lynn; Many thanks for your comments. The dark parts are deep tarnish. However, I have this necklace since quite some time already and after taking the photo (these photos I am posting are those I usually use for customs purposes), I have cleaned it. It is high silver and has a fantastic glow. By the way, the necklace is quite large, which cannot really be noticed from this photo. With kind regards. Peter
