Description

Two strands of pale, speckled beads, roughly spherical and graduated in size, are draped around a dark fabric-covered stand with a high collar. The shorter strand sits higher on the chest and the longer one falls lower in a deep V, with its largest beads at the bottom. The beads have weathered, mottled surfaces against a plain grey background.
