  • Vintage Konyak Naga necklace of orange whiteheart glass trade beads, 23”
  • Five strands of relatively new mid-20th century orange whitehearts
  • The lovely, antique, super smooth, square chank shell button gave more status and value to the piece.
  • The shell is decorative, not a clasp, so the necklaces has to be slid on over the head. It's a fairly tight fit, but offers multiple options: shell in the front, in the back, or asymmetrically on one side.
  • Collected in Nagaland during the 1980s
