Lovely pieces, Nishedha! I wonder what the fascination with death is, in the Himalayas. Why often or always this "trinity" in malas. Is there an explanation? The central pendant, than this two smaller "chains" hanging down left and right! Must have some reason. Though I visited the area a few times, I have basically no knowledge on the iconography of their ornaments. Do not even know the various names of DZI beads - unfortunately (and despite the literature, I own). I love basically all they do, but was more busy with Mauritania, I guess. Should definitely fill that gap soon! Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
