About the Item
Early to mid-20th century Jantar necklace, Nepal
This long silver alloy (kakar-manka) necklace, a jantar, features a hollow repoussé square pendant, which is suspended from seven woven silver wire cords on each side, anchored in the back with a circular lotus repoussé clasp. These necklaces were worn by the wealthy married Tamang women of Nepal. It measures 23 inches (58.5 cm) long, as photographed, and is 5 inches wide (12.7 cm) wide. The interior circumference is approximately 32 inches around. This is one item, even though listed as a set.
