Ancient Beads
I was given 3 ancient bead looking statues -I need to know where to go to get them appraised.?
A patient gave them to me. She has many ancient artifacts of which she has supporting documentation, however she never took the time to get these appraised. She gave them to me b/c I was admiring her items so much. No Chicago museums where of any help.
Post a picture on Flickr, tell us where they come from, according to the documentation. That will give a clue about where you should go.
For instance, when you tried the museums, did you get to any curators, or just the membership desk? Try working through the library.

A String And A Prayer: How To Make And Use Prayer Beads $10.19 Eleanor Wiley and Maggie Oman Shannon have taken an ancient practice and made it new. A String and a Prayer recounts the history and symbolism of prayer beads, teaches basic techniques for stringing beads and a host of other objects into prayer beads, and offers a variety of prayers and rituals to use those beads on a daily basis. Beads have appeared throughout history. Prayer beads are used in the spiritual practices of cultures as diverse as the African Masai, Native Americans, Greek and Russian Orthodoxy, as well as the religious rituals of Islam, Hinduism, Christianity, and Buddhism. But prayer is highly personal. By infusing prayer beads with personal associations, we can keep our spirituality fresh. The beads are a device to help build and rebuild meaningful ritual in our lives. With myriad ideas about what makes objects sacred and where to find sacred objects — from the personal, perhaps beads from a grandmother's broken rosary, to the unusual, maybe seashells from far away found in a thrift store — A String and a Prayer offers many suggestions for different ways that beads can be made and used, exploring the creative roles they can play in our relationships, ceremonies, and rituals. "You are the expert, trust yourself. Let the instructions be a guide to your own creativity," write the authors. |
