    Description

    A lovely, subtly colored necklace with two rare and old curved, teardrop-shaped, hand-carved shell beads. At the center, a large Tribal phenolic amber bead followed by two smaller, vintage amber-colored resin beads. Then, eight gorgeous, green, disk-shaped amazonite beads separated by small flat shell heshi. Next, fourteen Tibetan yak bone prayer beads, wrapped with brass wire. The brass wire, over time, has colored the bone with a rich green patina. The piece is finished with very old white padre beads showing great age and character. Fulani bronze aja beads throughout. A unique and special necklace. 22 inches long.

    I use ancient, antique, trade, vintage and even on occasion new beads from all around the world. I arrange them into interesting, original patterns to make one-of-a-kind necklaces that have a classic feel. Some old beads have imperfections; tome that's part of their character, their history. They are after all, artifacts;connections to the past.
