    Made with very tiny seed beads, this necklace has been in the family for years, I have no idea where it came from as I live in the UK, unfortunately it is so old it is disintegrating and I am not sure how to preserve it, just wondering if anyone could identify the pattern or age.

      This has sparked my interest. Doesn't resemble anything I have seen by the western tribes. If this is from an Eastern tribe, it would be old & rare. It's not my field, but I think you should share this with experts.

      Thanks for your comment, do you have any suggestions for who to show it to? It would be lovely to know where it came from

      s I said, It's not my field. I'm hoping a CW member with knowledge in this will show up.
