2 tiered necklace with silver geometric beads (N0003)
$103.00
The necklace is made of tiny handmade silver beads, called “rice beads” due to their shape and a series of handmade, hollow silver pieces, crafted in 95-98% Silver. The hollow geometrical shape pieces make a lovely tinkling sound when moving and are worn by Thai hilltribe people in their traditional attire.
Our products are hand crafted in 95-98% Silver by Thai Karen hill-tribe artisans by means of traditional tools and techniques. The Karen are a group of ethnic peoples who reside primarily in southern and southeastern Burma and in northern and north-eastern Thailand. Thai and Burmese hill tribes can be traced back to the 12th century when they are said to have originated from Tibet.
With a higher silver content than sterling silver, Karen silver has a weight, bright satin color and feel, all of its own. Every piece is handmade and individual.
The product comes with traditional Thai packaging and includes tracking number for safer shipping.
By purchasing this product, you contribute directly to maintain and support local arts and crafts in Thailand.
