They are used as a way to keep your hands busy and just as a general time waster or peace-of-mind creator...Here a different style than the traditional (shorter begleri). The chain and end tassels, are Stainless steel for extra durability, and nice contrast with the gemstones. All 16 beads are 10mm round, and have lovely earthy tones with gorgeous variations and patterns on every bead. Total length is 13" (tassel to tassel). Both tassel cups are made of silver tone base metal, as well as the separator in the middle. A beautiful, elegant accessory, for men and women, made of Natural Gemstone and durable materials. Perfect for a gift!
