Ancient and modern adornments in Tibet

Among all the bead strings of necklace, the most valuable one is a heavenly pearl. According to legend, it evolved from an insect falling down from heaven. The heavenly pearl can be classified into "nine-hole heavenly pearl", "two-hole heavenly pearl", "single-hole heavenly pearl", etc. according to the number of holes on it. Among them, the "nine-hole heavenly pearl" is the most rare and most valuable.

In regard to aristocratic men, ear adornments are the major form. Lhasa aristocrats often wore them on the left ear. Most ear adornments were made of turquoise and were commonly in shape of 10cm-long strip strung on a gold string.
