Description

  • These beads are priced and sold individually
  • Vintage Indian silver from my favorite Jain silversmithing family in Jaipur
  • These meticulously decorated beads feature several rows of granulation in different sizes.
  • Granulation in gold had been widely practiced in India since ancient times, but it didn't come back into favor in silver until the late 1980s and early 1990s.
  • From the collection of Joyce Diamanti, bead writer, researcher and editor who traveled widely in India. Quantities are limited.
