Glass Bead and Karen Silver Heart Necklace - Red - Hammered Heart

Colorful glass beads, traditionally used in Karen tribal necklaces. These have been crafted into a necklace, paired with a Karen silver heart. The heart charm is custom-made for Chiku Chiku Tong Tong by our artisans. We've combined hammered hearts to complement the colors of the glass beads. The meticulously hammered texture shines beautifully. The texture of the Karen silver lends an elegant, yet not overly cute, feel, while the striking glass beads add a touch of adorable color, creating a heart accessory for the sophisticated adult. We also offer heart necklaces in different shapes and sizes, as well as matching earrings and bracelets. Please take a look. ■ Handmade Silver from the Karen Tribe of Thailand 🇹🇭 Crafted with a higher purity than standard sterling silver (92.5%). Its skin-friendly hue enhances natural beauty. Each small bead is handmade, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike, even within the same design. Please enjoy the unique character born from craftsmanship. --- ▽ Click here for the necklace collection https://pinkoi.com/store/chikuchikutong?catp=group_2%2Cgroup_2_0%2Clisting_201 --- <Size (approx.)> Length 40-45cm (15.7-17.7 inches) * Length when clasp is fastened (Adjustable chain included) <Materials> ・Decorative beads, charm: Karen silver, glass beads ・Clasp: Silver 925 ・Stainless steel wire, stainless steel hardware https://lzd-img-global.slatic.net/g/p/8f283339feb0e6bd70cd5eb29aaeec05.jpg_2200x2200q80.jpg_.webp Both standard orders and gift wrapping are presented as shown in the photos.

If you notice blackening on silver or brass, gently polish with a silver or metal polishing cloth.
