| LP Parn's Betel-Nut-Dye Amulets |
|
| In the old time, Thai people--both ladies and gentlemen--traditionally chewed
betel nut. And the necklace wearing was not popular in among Thai people as it is todays.
There were a few methods that Thai men brought amulets with them at that time-- many had
netted amulets with small-gauged copper or bronze wire and then hanged them with cotton
cord, while some put them in mouths --normally one each. This is why the betel-nut-dye
amulets were occasionally found. Betel nut has some substance that help make amulet texture stronger and look shining after a moderate period touching (Thai collectors call such the physical appearance as Nua Jaad). Classic collectors like to collect betel-nut-dye amulets but some premium money might be needed to add up towards their prices. Please click each of above thumbnails for bigger picture. |
