BeadsSf656

Necklace made of green malachite mineral tube beads, metal triangular beads, and light brown and grey pearls. Ten triangular golden beads are alternated with cylindrical blue-green, stone beads. They are arranged symmetrically on either side of a central ornament which consists of a long stone bead terminated by two pearls and a golden disc. The ornament is connected to the necklace by two strands of irregularly shaped pearls. A single, hollow, golden spherical bead flanked by six pearls is centred above the ornament. Most of the stone beads are chipped or broken.
