The Fringe necklace is made of ancient, bow-drilled agate stone beads from the 3rd milennia BC. These beads are known to have been used as a functional head band to hold down veils in the desert climate. They have been re-purposed in jewelry for more than 5000 years. They are mounted in high karat gold and steel aircraft cable.
