Authentic Ancient Pre-Pyu or Pyu Bead Necklace – ca. 54 beads (plus beautiful multi-colour small spacer discs)

A very rare collector's Pyu beads necklace with central quartz crystal bead, fiery orange carnelian, spherical shaped and cylindric as well as "collared" glass beads.

One white and two orange beads with larger chip, apart from that the Pyu beads display excellent condition with most minor signs of wear and tear commensurate with the great age of more than 1'000 to 2'000 years (please see the detailed images)!
The former collector from Burma has restrung the necklace with then high collectible bead.

approx. length of necklace: 530 mm
age of the beads: 1000 to 2000 years
