These excavated Amazonite pendants from 12th to 16th century Mali and Mauritania would have been used as high level prestige and currency as well as heirloom dowry wealth. We’ve attached them to a waxed cotton cord with slipknots for a simple but striking and absolutely history filled necklace that will make an excellent addition to your wardrobe! #amazonite #excavatedamazonite #antiqueamazonite #antiquegems #antiquejewelry #antiquependant #ancientbeads #ancientjewelry #12thto16thcentury #mali #mauritania #handmadebeads #wearablehistory #unisexjewelry #mensjewelry #mensfashion #mensstyle #uniquejewelry #fashion #style #shop #nyc #unionsquare #beadsofparadise (at Beads of Paradise NYC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV_LSo-PjWG/?utm_medium=tumblr
