Unique ethnic necklace. The composition of the pieces in this necklace gives it a special look. All individual pieces/beads are authentic, some of which are really old. It is a mix in terms of origin and style and therefore a unique necklace. A fusion of different parts and beads such as African silver, old glass beads and for example aluminum (was originally used for pots and pans) creates a harmonious whole. The parts come from different African countries and from peoples such as: Berber, Ethiopia, West Africa, Turkana.... etc. They are each a work of art in themselves.
The background of certain pieces can be found in books and reference works on African art, such as 'Africa Adorned' and 'The history of beads'. Some photos are included. See photo 6 to 11.
The pieces, such as the silver, are not polished or treated to preserve the original patina. This can always be done if desired, then the silver will of course get more shine.
