AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Shipping after 15 August due to holidays.
Very elaborate stunning Ghau/Gau Tibetan or Nepalese amulet hanger.
Made from sterling (925 stamped) silver with turquoise, coral and one single lapis lazuli stone.
The added three-stone hanger below the amulet is rare for this model.
The black woven cord was added by the antiques dealer where it was bought and is not the original and can of course be replaced or taken off as so desired.
Height with the 3-stone hanger: 13 cm
Width: 7 cm
Weight: 192 grams
Condition:
Excellent.
Next to having the rare 3-stone hanger below the amulet box it is also in a not often seen condition.
There is light age related wear to the silver but for example the engraved pattern on the bottom side is in a flawless condition and the 925 stamp still perfectly readable.
Alle stones are in perfect condition and as far as we know no repairs have ever been made.
Please refer to the pictures for the best idea of the condition.
