Four-Strand Earrings with African Brass, Red Seed Beads, Mizuasagi Beads, and Ethnic Bells

These are four-strand earrings connecting African brass, red seed beads, mizuasagi beads, and ethnic bells. The spiral-patterned beads are ethnic brass beads from Africa. (African brass bead size: 2cm length, 0.8cm width) The red beads are old Indian seed beads. Each bead is irregular and has a slightly rough texture, having been worn for many years (around the 19th-20th century). They feature a mix of deep reds and vermilion hues. The mizuasagi-colored beads are antique beads called Indian Pacific beads. The origin of Indian Pacific beads is said to date back to the 2nd century BC. These beads are excavated items from Indonesia, dating back to the 10th century – over 1000 years old! Their irregular size and color variations make them endlessly fascinating. The brass beads at the top are old Oriya brass, antique brass beads from India. These beads are very rare and difficult to obtain nowadays! The bells are from the Kuchi tribe of Afghanistan, once part of decorative items, and are also old pieces. The small silver beads above and below are Karen silver. They are strung on waxed cord, which will feel a bit stiff at first but will become supple with wear. These earrings offer an ethnic flair within a chic design. 【Customizable!】 Hook earrings Screw-back earrings (includes earring covers!)
