Description
The golden, round beads used in this necklace are filled with wax to make them lightweight and then covered in silver or gold. This type of bead is traditionally worn in Maharashtra and North Karnataka and they are prized heirlooms. In this design I have interspersed these gold beads with colourful jadau work beads, set with rubies, emeralds and other beautiful coloured gemstones.
Designer Katie says: "These beads have been waiting to be used for a while and have found expression, finally this year, in these super-long necklaces. Stunning, each piece is unique and knotted with golden thread."
Ellie wears this necklace with a couple of our other Long Golden Bead Necklaces.
Materials: the beads in this necklace are made of gold plated sterling silver and the ornate beads are set with emeralds, rubies, pearl & turquoise gemstones. The beads are knotted together with gold-coloured silk thread.
Details: the necklace is 124 cm long and has no clasp. It is long enough to be wrapped twice around.
Packaging Information: all our products come beautifully packaged and you can select your packaging preference at checkout and additionally let us know of any other requirements you may have. A care card is included with each purchase also.
