I've
never seen a piece like this one! Clearly well-worn as you can see from the
neckband, this HUGE necklace has three rectangular amulets (not too old, maybe
25 years...the chain is too bright and the backing is a little too heavy.)
The white pellet-shaped beads feel like plastic...but what is really interes
ting is the the small pieces
in-between the white beads are CLOVES. If you have ever tried to pierce a
dried clove with a needle and thread...I can only assume these were worked
green. Inside the second large white tassel on the left is a lock of what
feels like horsehair...very stiff and wiry. Altogether a very cool addition
to any collection.
