Antique 1914-1918 Turkish Prisoner of War Beaded Snake Necklace

ÂŁ250.00

Remarkable and rare, this beaded snake necklace was handcrafted by Turkish prisoners of war between 1914-1918.

Condition Report:

Excellent - The bead strand and loop at the end of the tail have been added to the piece by a professional beadwork restorer to allow the snake to be worn as a necklace. This is sympathetic to the piece and works beautifully with the original beadwork.
