49” LONG Vintage Antique Carved Yak & Deer Bone Mala Prayer Bead Necklace Art NR

Description

Up for auction is this vintage or antique carved deer and yak bone bead necklace. Possibly a mala prayer bead necklace. Very long and all beads decorated with pierced holes and circular details.
Looks like it has age and I imagine dates to around the late 19th / early 20th C.
The necklace measures about 49” inches long. The clasp doesn’t seem to unscrew and the other clasp also doesn’t have the piece to unhook it so I suppose this is meant to stay together and not be taken apart. The darker beads are more ornate.
Would make a fantastic piece to wear, fine addition to a collection, or a great gift!
