Bracelet of old Himachali silver, African agate, grape-colored antique white hearts, indigo blue mixed beads, and old Indian silver charms

A bracelet crafted by connecting old Himachali silver, African agate, grape-colored antique white hearts, indigo blue mixed beads, and old Indian silver charms. The old Himachali silver, adorned with floral patterns, originates from Himachal Pradesh in the northwesternmost part of India. This is over 100 years old "old silver," believed to have been previously set with turquoise and coral. It is hollow inside, making it surprisingly lightweight. (Size of old Himachali silver: Width 1.5cm, Height 1cm, Thickness 0.55cm) These beads, with their semi-translucent appearance and white striped patterns, are agates excavated in Africa, dating back to around the 10th century. Their beautiful forms showcase the distinctive stripes characteristic of agate. While they bear the marks of age, these imperfections contribute to their unique charm. (Size of African agate: Width 1cm x Diameter 0.7cm) The purple and red beads are antique "white hearts," named for their white core. These Venetian beads are from the 19th to 20th century. They feature a mix of grape-like hues and deep reds. While red is common for white hearts, this particular shade of purple is quite rare. A single deep red white heart bead has been placed alongside the African agate. The indigo blue beads are antique "Indo-Pacific beads," with origins tracing back to the 2nd century BCE. These particular beads were excavated in Indonesia and are astonishingly around 1000 years old, from approximately the 10th century! The beads with a muted golden hue, and the anchor-like charm next to the larger deep red white heart, are made of old Orissa brass. This is a very rare and valuable brass originating from India. The charm on the clasp is antique Indian silver, crafted between the 19th and early 20th century. With wear, it is expected to develop a unique patina. The central motif depicts Bhumiya Ji, a legendary hero from Rajasthan, India, depicted riding a horse. (Size: Height 1.7cm, Width 1.3cm - including the loop.) The tiny silver beads between the main beads and the clasp are Karen silver. ◇ Karen Silver ◇ This silver is crafted by the mountain tribes living in Thai-Burma. Each piece is handmade, and the silver is said to have a very high purity. Connected with waxed cord, the bracelet may feel slightly stiff initially, but will soften and loosen by a few millimeters with wear. Custom size and design modifications are welcome!
