Purchased at a Beijing antique market for interior decoration. I think the grimy feel gives it an indescribable "good taste." I especially like that the clasp isn't metal! With a regular clasp, I think it would lose its sense of unity... The clasp on this one is more stylish in terms of balance. After returning home, I looked it up online and found that a similar product, with only the clasp made of metal, is being sold on overseas sites. The details are... as follows: 1970s Tribal Statement Jewelry 1970s Vintage Wooden Bead Necklace! It features layers of natural and dyed wood in earth tones such as terracotta, oxblood, beige, and walnut. The graduated circular beads are combined with flat disc-shaped spacers and twisted into a rope-like shape, giving the piece depth and three-dimensionality. *Prices are subject to change without notice. #LotusNecklace #LotusBracelet Returns are not accepted.
