Sri Lanka Silver, Tibet Coral & Mosaic Coral Necklaces.

Posted by Frankie Carter on November 16, 2013 at 5:04pm

For a while now I have cherished the idea of putting together a Sri Lankan Kandy style necklace when I could get together the suitable components.Now that I have them I am wondering if they should not be left as they are. The inner and outer necklaces would be easy to restring. The middle one is made with old tibetan coral beads (mediterranean sourced, of course) that have been said to come from an old mala. They were individually knotted quite a long time ago, it seems.What would YOU do?
