Nepalese Handmade Tibetan order Brass Turquoise & Coral Repousse Necklace

These chunky, hand crafted repousse beads are adorned with intricate inlaid turquoise, red coral order and blue lapis chips. The beads were probably made in Nepal by Tibetans or Nepalese artisans specializing in this type of metal work. The beads are thick gauge metal but hollw, so this is not as heavy as it appears and yet the beads won't dent easily either and have been designed to fit nicely into a necklace, so it hangs gracefully. Kingman Turquoise 10mm rondelles used as spacer beads and repousse beads measure 24mm down to 16mm, the length of the necklace is 20 inches.
