A neclace that will surely burn the evil eye off every passer-by. This hand-craft from the roots of the gypsies is self-brought from Nepal. It consists of thirty 25-paise coins tightly interwoven with orange thread. The coins date all the way from 1959 to 1974, exept for one from 1986, which appears to be a later best repair, since it is attached with a different kind of metal than the rest.

The history lies heavy on the worn out Indian coins of this neclace and makes you wonder to how many stories they are interwined into by time. A beauty of a neclace in which the orange thread plays wonderfully with the patina on the coins.
