Beaded Necklace Ethiopia
Necklace Size: 17x4 Inches, plus 13" leather thong tie
Description
Ethiopian beaded necklaces are beautiful and unique pieces of jewelry that are often handcrafted by skilled artisans in Ethiopia. These necklaces are made using a variety of materials such as glass beads, brass beads, silver beads, and leather cords.
Ethiopian beaded necklaces are not only beautiful but also hold cultural significance. They are often worn during traditional Ethiopian celebrations and ceremonies and are believed to bring good luck and protection to the wearer.
Ethiopia is home to one of the oldest continuous Christian traditions in the world, and Ethiopian silversmiths produce religious jewelry as an expression of that tradition. Star of David pendants are worn around the neck and emphasize the relationship of Christian Ethiopians to Israel, King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.
This one is broken, but we are giving you the loose beads along with the necklace. The strings are very fragile and will break. In need of repair or beads can be used on another project.
