How very beautiful, Frankie!

I love the great variety of silver beads - are the red beads all amber/copal?

Thank you, Betty.

All the beads other than the silver ones are real old amber beads, showing signs of their age. I`m really pleased to have a couple of signed and granulated silver Yemeni wheel beads!
