About the Item

Ancient Himalayan Jasper Disc Necklace A striking collection of ancient excavated jasper beads, originally dating to the 1st Millennium A.D., more recently composed into a refined and wearable necklace. The beads, carved in circular disc forms, were excavated in Nepal alongside ancient Dzi beads discovered thousands of years ago. Comparable examples of early stone trade beads have also been documented in Pakistan, India, and Afghanistan, reflecting the historic exchange routes that connected the Himalayan region with Central and South Asia. The strand features deep green and rich red jasper tones complemented. Each bead was individually hand-shaped in antiquity; surface patina, natural variation, and subtle irregularities attest to their age and authenticity. The necklace is finished with a handmade sterling silver clasp in the Arts and Crafts Studio style. The clasp displays a beautifully rich patina and a light dimpled texture, clearly revealing the artist’s hand and reinforcing the piece’s artisanal character. This necklace thoughtfully balances archaeological significance with contemporary craftsmanship, offering a rare opportunity to acquire authentic ancient beads presented in a timeless, wearable design. Suitable for collectors of antiquities, connoisseurs of early trade beads, or those seeking a distinctive statement piece with historical depth. Collector and museum-quality wearable art.

Antique Tibetan Tribal Necklace Conch Shell Heishi & Old Dzi Beads

Antique Tibetan Tribal Necklace Conch Shell Heishi & Old Dzi Beads

Located in Milford, DE

Antique Tibetan Tribal Necklace Conch Shell Heishi & Old Dzi Beads, Featuring Bronze Ritual Pendant A striking museum-grade Tibetan tribal necklace, hand-assembled from an exceptional selection of antique Himalayan elements. This piece combines richly patinated red discs heishi, natural conch shell spacers, and rare old Tibetan dzi-style beads—each carrying unique symbols, age-wear, and organic texture developed through generations of ceremonial use. At its center hangs an authentic bronze ritual pendant, traditionally worn as a protective talisman by Himalayan nomadic tribes. The warm earth tones of the discs contrast beautifully with the ivory-toned conch and deep black dzi motifs, creating a necklace with profound spiritual resonance and a powerful sculptural presence. This is not a modern reproduction—each bead shows genuine age, hand-carved irregularity, and the tactile history of an object carried through travel, trade, and devotion across Tibet and the Himalayan plateau. A dramatic wearable artifact, equally suited for collectors of ethnographic jewelry and connoisseurs of soulful statement pieces. PROVENANCE Origin: Tibet / Himalayan plateau Period: Late 19th – early 20th century elements, restrung later Collected: From a private Tibetan ethnographic collection, USA Components include: antique discs...
