A Delicate Bracelet of Diverse Aquamarine Seed Beads, Shan Vintage Carnelian, Ancient Agate, and Old Orissa Brass

This is a delicate bracelet connecting diverse aquamarine seed beads, Shan vintage carnelian, ancient agate, and old Orissa brass. The beads, with their captivating stripes, are carnelian that was used by the Shan people (Myanmar). While the exact age is unknown, they are vintage items over 50 years old. The intricate patterns created by nature are truly mesmerizing! (Vintage Carnelian size: 1 cm length, 0.6 cm diameter) Accented with ancient agate featuring white stripes. These were excavated from regions such as Pakistan and India along the Indus River, dating back approximately 2000 years. Despite their small, charming size, beautiful striations can be observed. The various aquamarine beads are old Indian seed beads. Their worn texture offers a unique character, a testament to being cherished and worn for many years (around the 19th-20th century). Each tiny bead varies in size and shape, creating a rich and expressive presence. (Bead size: 2.3-2.8 mm) An amber-colored Venetian antique white heart bead is placed near the clasp. The anchor-like charm next to the golden beads and ancient agate is old Orissa brass. These are old and rare beads from the state of Orissa in India. The charm on the clasp is also an old brass component from India. The beads around the flexible clasp and loop are Karen silver. Each small Karen silver bead on the clasp is individually stamped! It's quite astounding to think of all this being done by hand... ◇ Karen Silver ◇ This silver is crafted by the hill tribes living in Thailand and Burma.
