Mandarin Beads
Mandarin Beads by artist. Long necklace made of numerous small, round beads. The beads are uniform in size and have a dark color. A loop of beads forms three parallel strands that connect at the top to a single larger bead. A large tassel hangs from the top bead. The tassel has a cluster of long, thin strands. A ruler is visible at bottom left. A label at bottom right reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART".
