About 10 years ago I was caregiver to woman in York, Maine who gave me this necklace she had made as a gift. I never noticed that it opened until recently. Some say it held perfume to hide body odor, while other's say it was used to hold sewing needles. Any info would be wonderful.
That is an awesome necklace along with a great story! You have come to the right place to find out about it, I wish I could answer for you but someone will be along soon to help you out!
Can we see the necklace in it's entirety, as it would look if it were around your neck? You can post four photos here.
It's actually a prayer box; it has different names in different Asian cultures and is made to carry a scroll with a sacred text or a prayer or even a small reliquary.
It would have held prayers.
its beautiful
