    Description

    I
    am listing an ethnic design necklace that I created, made with a vintage African bronze pendant from the Gan people in Barkina Faso. Snake imagery is central to their religion and mythology, and this 3 headed one
    is strung on beautiful multi-colored  beads, which I bought as "opal" beads. Each bead has a different and I think exquisite color, but I can't tell you anything more about them except that the seller, who doesn't know where they come from, insists they are actually opal.
    Pendant is made in the lost wax casting technique, each piece unique and made individually.
    Necklace: 21
    " around; Pendant 2 3/4" L with nice patina; Gold plated toggle clasp.
    Please watch my site for other necklaces I will be listing, that I have designed with vintage, Pre-Columbian, gemstone, and trade beads, strung with ethnic and antique pendants, fishing lures, those of my own design and castings, and other funky, fun and interesting things I find on my flea market adventure.
    Thanks for looking.
