Large Kashmiri Tribal Jewelry Necklace
This large vintage 4-strands tribal necklace is as handcrafted during the mid-1900's in the lush Kashmir Valley at the base of the Himalayas.
It is an old tribal jewelry necklace - not a new reproduction.
Large triangular pendants with clattering dangles have traditional incised designs that are characteristic of Kashmir.
The old beads on the strands are classically Kashmiri, as are the ornate 3 dimensional terminals.
Mild wear patterns and a warm age patina remain after decades of time. Recently restrung, with a button clasp.
Comes in a gift-box.

About KASHMIR: Kashmir
is a lush valley located in the foothills of the Himalayas. Situated halfway
between the Tibetan Plateau and the diverse sub-continent of India, the Kashmir
Valley has often been called “Heaven on Earth.”
It was a central stopping place on the old Silk Road trade route
between East and West, with an ancient and rich tribal heritage. It remains a
contested land, with dominion yet to be resolved.
