Traditional Garo Multi-strand Beaded Necklace

Deeply rooted in the ancestral adornment heritage of the A·chik community of Meghalaya, this Traditional Garo Ripok Beaded Necklace is a timeless statement piece created for festive dances, weddings, and cultural celebrations. Hand-strung by indigenous artisans, the necklace is structured in a balanced multi-tier drape that begins with polished, faceted black beads along the neck before transitioning into graduated lower tiers of warm, vibrant red beads. The strands are held neatly in place by smooth white spacer divider bars that keep each row spaced and aligned across the collarbone. Anchoring each tiered row at the center are smooth, rounded natural organic barrel beads featuring earthy variegated bands that give each piece an authentic, one-of-a-kind character. Mounted on a durable braided artisan cord with an adjustable tie closure, it allows for a customized neckline fit that complements traditional Dokmanda wraps, festive silks, handloom weaves, and contemporary ethnic outfits.
