Zulu Antique Circular Necklace

15 ins / 38 cm inner ... 34 ins / 86 cm outer circumference
made with 2.5 mm beads ... some damage as shown

Bought from THE Grandmother of a small village in KwaZulu Natal
amongst 50 or so of her grand and great grandchildren, kittens, goats, the rest of her family and a few neighbours ... in the smoky depths of her tiny small circular home !!
Although some areas have been damaged over the years ... no doubt repairable
by an expert beader ... this is a really beautiful example of antique beadwork.
