Featured Bada boom, bada bling....

Only a few things this weekend.

 

Wowweeee!

 

That turquoise one goes on and on and on! Very nice.
The bottom one with the blue beads is interesting as I sometimes see similar metal beads and I picked one the other day and never know where they are from.

 

I do like turquoise and silver. The necklace is Indian or Tibetan. @Any Jewelry can tell more on them.

 

The blue looks Indian to me. I have a few similar bracelets to the wavy one. I love lucite, even if it's modern.

 

These are the ones I picked up at the weekend.Do these look like Indian too? @Ownedbybear and @evelyb30
Mine look cruder than Bears.

 

That one is from Nepal, gorgeous. I have matching earrings.

Indian. I have a black one.

Am I allowed to reply too? Moroccan (very North African Hippie Trail).

 

They don't read as Indian to me. I'd bet Any is right.

 

Awesome. Sorry, thinking about it I shouldn’t have gate crashed OBBs post, that was a bit rude of me (sorry )

 

Of course .

 

Oh, crash away, it's all educational.

aj, I've coral seed bead necklaces the same. One bought in Jordan, so they travel! I'm presuming the Nepalese one is Persian or Afghan turquoise from the colour.

 

Did you test them for Bakelite ? I had similar (but the color was darker) and the tested as Bakelite.. no idea that they were from Morocco, you learn something new everyday.. thank you !

 

A lot of Indian jewellery and crafts travel to the Middle East, and they'r often sold as souvenirs there. All pretty stuff.
Did you test the coral beads? I've seen many Indian 'coral' seed bead necklaces with coral-like holes and black spots in the beads that are actually glass.
Naga tribal necklaces are also often sold as coral, but rarely are. The Indians are just very good at making coral glass.

Yes, they have been importing Persian and Afghani turquoise for thousands of years.

 

I've one that's coral and a couple that aren't. I swear these are breeding.

I do like Afghan and Persian stones.
