Yes! I always look for those big cloth-wrapped strands, but the Traders so rarely have any. I call these, and others on rotten string with some real pattern to the arrangements, "natural necklaces" at my site. There are lots of fishline-strung necklaces in intriguing patterns marketed as wedding, ready-to-be-married, childrens', or other special purpose arrangements, usually Fulani, and I pass on the designation the Traders give them, hoping these are accurate reproductions.
