  • These black coral silver beads are a bit different from the usual and in very good condition.

    Also the silver Yemen globes with granulation.  Please correct me if I am wrong.

  • This is excellent. Are the beads gilded or is that just a trick of the camera?

  • Sarah you must be on line now.  thank you.  This is mine of course.  Its so cold and the wind icy from the Antarctic and we have just had a smattering of snow.

  • No, Patricia, I think it is the light, they are the usual "silver" globes from Yemen.  Getting rare and pricey.

  • is it silver in the black beads or just painting  ?  a fantastic piece

  • Ait its inlay silver.  I'm glad I designed it as I did, because I've been looking for something to go with the black beads and the silver balls go so well with the granulation which is picked up in the silver dots on the black beads.

  • beautiful beads!! All of them.

  • Are the black coral beads newly made? have never seen this pattern before, lovely necklace!!

  • Marie-Ange, you might be right.  The black coral beads are in perfect condition, so yes maybe they are new.  I was attacted to them because of the pattern.

    Not sure even if they are made today?

    I have been trying to contact you, but the email has been returned.

  • The pattern of the silver studs is much more sofisticated than the old beads that is why I think these are newly made but no matter how old they are beautiful!

    Think we should become friends here first before we can email, you can mail me on my home address m.a.vanson@hetnet.nl
