3 Beautiful ornate carnelian inlaid Middle Eastern Ottoman carnelian pendants beaded with 2 rows of very old carnelian vintage beads.
I used 3 of these old Ottoman middle eastern brass inlaid oval pendants and beaded them with 2 rows of beautiful vintage carnelian gemstone beads.
The 3 oval pendants measure approximately 24mm up yo 30mm in width by 20-28mm in height including the bails.
The graduated old trade carnelian vintage collection beads measure approximately 16-14mm.
I used little bronze spacers through out that are about 3mm.
Finished this Necklace with a handmade copper hook clasp closure and added a bronze extension Rolo chain that measures 5”.
The shorter inner strand measures 20” while the second one is 21” plus the option of extension up to 25”.
Carnelian is said to aid health, long life and good fortune. It is also said to help one fulfil ones innermost wishes if worn near the heart. Warming and cleansing the blood and kidneys this stone works well in the orange and yellow. This stone can also be used to stimulate appetite, passion, emotions and physical energy.
