Ethically sourced cow bone beads together with old Venetian King beads centering a Tibetan Naga Conch shell.
Bone beads are known to promote strength, balance, objectivity, and immense life-force energy.
The 2 green beads are old Venetian King beads wound and marvered bicone beads. Legend has it that their name originates by African Kings and tribal chiefs who would wear these beads during the mass importation of African trade beads in the early 1970s. King beads still hold a place of importance in todays African society where they are prominently featured in Dipo Initiation ceremonies held in Ghana. They symbolize maturity and prosperity.
The pendant is an ethnic tribal Tibetan Naga Conch Shell in embellished Brass Inlayed with Turquoise and Coral. White Conch shells are harvested mainly from the sea coasts of India and Pakistan. Conch shells have been used as ornaments in Nepal, Tibet, India and Burma for over 4000 years. They are mainly favored by Naga people, an ethnic group comprising of several tribes native to the northeastern part of India and north-western Myanmar (Burma).
