I love it, Preethi!
Beautiful beads, so many thalers and little branch tips of coral. Great character. Congratulations, Preethi.

There is actually a clan of the Tigre speaking people in Eritrea who are also called Mariah (spellings vary...). In Ethiopia ,in the very old days, you would also find amulets with similar long tubes instead of bails. Just wanted to share my thoughts....
