Original Message: My "Berber" Necklace |
---|
Hello Kees, This is a necklace from my collection that I made in about 1982. In 1980 I made my first trip to the eastern US, with stops in New York and Boston. In Boston, I went to the Harvard campus museums, and at one of the gift stores I found this enameled Berber pendant. I combined it with some silver Berber coins I had previously bought from Liza Wataghani, and added some Venetian trade beads—including the plain wound yellow beads that more-or-less resemble amber—chosen because they have the same colors as the pendant (yellow, green, dark blue). Berbers love amber. So there it is. Jamey All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users |
