NecklaceSf681 a-b

A five strand necklace with two stands now broken. The small disc shaped beads alternate in groups of black stone beads with groups or orange or purple shell beads. The shell beads frequently have two white beads as borders. The beads are threaded on hand spun brown cotton cords. The fastening cords are re-plied and thus larger in scale. Part b is a few beads that have fallen off the broken strands and are now threaded on monofilament.
