Indian silversmiths are still so skillful, that antique Indian silver (a natural old patina being priceless) is not valued as I feel it should.
See here a nice group of British Raj rupees, strung with spherical silver beads from Yemen.

A three rung necklace from Northern India, strung with small Chinese turquoise disc beads.

It is no that easy anymore to get large sets of matching antique silver beads, since the fast growing Indian middle class is hoarding such goodies.

A graphic of the necklace's structure is annexed for instant diagnostic.
