I specially like the first one, such an elegant rendering of the Mond multistrand traditional necklaces (cfr. Liu, Collectible Beads, p.78).

Is there a set of beads that look like Prakeuam dye-stamped silver beads from the Surin area, in Thailand?
I have a good collection of antique Prakeuam beads, but have been unable to use them in any of my designs, they draw so much attention.
These beads seem to be little known or appreciated, perhaps because the antique ones are comparatively rare--I guess they were routinely recycled, being made of good quality silver.
