Tadjik necklace with granulation

Amazing, fine granulation. This piece appears to be very old, though it may have been restrung sometime in the past.

The granulation is on the backside as well as on the sides of the amulet cases (upper right side has been repaired). I imagine that these opened at one point but have since been soldered on permanently.
