Intricately detailed glass. Each glass bead is unique; size, shape, color. The holiest and the oldest living city in the world, Varanasi- India, will bring you back to the old world that you might've only dreamed of. It is the ultimate pilgrimage for Hindus, who come to attain salvation and to stop their cycle of rebirth. As you row your boat along the river you witness people cleansing themselves in the river to wash away their sins, flower beds with candles of prayers float by, large flames burning brightly along the shore from the cremations and you hear traditional music with prayers and fire dances (called aarti). Exquisitely made glass beads by the local religious women who worked on the color, shape, and detail in between their visits to the temple throughout the day. A stunning and striking piece. Style it with a white top or flowy dress with a low neckline. Layer it with with more Gita necklaces.
