    Description

    I love your business! You have 4 days to pay or the unpaid assistant comes on..so if you need more time..just ask!
    mom bought this when we were in Holland from 84 to 88 from an antique shop as it is. I cant remember the tribe just that they said it was a museum piece very old and she just had to have it. Look closely at the pictures.. It was made of some kind of hand woven cloth rolled into strips then wrapped with a type of thread to hold it all then beaded. Very Very old. If you have any more information I can add to the details let me know. I will ship fully insured
    the information is accurate to the best of my ability which is not professional and part of  what the tag said when bought from the antique store and I invite you to add to my description. Be sure to ask before you bid..and take pics to a professional before you buy.  Items are sold as is..
    listing these two large boxes of jewelry while my moms gone make sure you check them out. some separate some in lots all as is. I got tired of taking pictures LOL  I tried to pair everything and untangle some too. clearing out a space
    The pictures are part of the description and your responsibility as a buyer to ask questions first..not after. Only bid if you intend to pay, thank you.
