Necklace with Afghan parts and ethnic bells, Roman glass and Bohemian beads, gooseberries, Indian silver, amethyst, colorful brass, blue and indigo blue beads - Necklaces - Glass Purple

Product Description

This is a necklace strung with Afghan parts and ethnic bells, Roman glass and Bohemian beads, gooseberries, Indian silver, amethyst, colorful brass, and blue & indigo blue beads. The softly curved parts are from Afghanistan. These are old items that were used in ethnic clothing and accessories. They are rare parts with floral patterns and delicate craftsmanship. (Afghan part size: 2.2cm length, 1.4cm width) The bells are from the Kuchi tribe. They were used as decorative items and are also old pieces. The long, thin beads are Roman glass. Roman glass dates back to the Roman Empire era (27 BC - 395 AD). The tubular ones were made from bangles, so they have a slight curve. As they are old, there are small chips, but they are fine for regular use. The clear, oval beads are early 20th-century Bohemian beads. They have scratches from age, but these only add to their wonderful atmosphere! (Bohemian bead size: 0.8cm width, 0.65cm height - for those near the top) The striped beads are called gooseberries. These are antique beads from Venice (19th-20th century). They are named this because they resemble gooseberries. As they are deadstock items, they have few scratches and are in very good condition. They have a faint pink hue. They are so shiny and truly lovely!! The curved, square beads are silver parts from India. They are hollow inside and not very heavy. Floral patterns are stamped on both sides. (I don't think the silver content is very high.) The oval beads are brass beads from Africa. Other metal parts from old necklaces have also been scattered throughout. The blue and indigo blue beads are antique beads called Indo-Pacific beads. The origin of Indo-Pacific beads is said to be the 2nd century BC. These beads are excavated items from Indonesia. Their age is an astonishing! around the 10th century, making them over 1000 years old! Various shapes and shades of amethyst have also been scattered in. The clasp is an S-hook, so you can fasten it on either side. This necklace evokes a sense of fresh vitality within a decadent beauty. Size Length: Approximately 43.5cm (when laid straight) Materials: Glass, Brass, Indian Silver, Amethyst, Mixed Metal, Karen Silver, Wire
