An interesting post, @slowwalker.
It seems that the measure of a kingdom's achievement lies not just in monumental architecture, temples and tombs of kings , but also in the decorative jewelry provided for women :)
These fashion accessories are exquisite examples of glass making and jade jewelry that are truly beautiful and as you say, comparable to modern products.
The colour range of jade beads from basic black through traditional green to vibrant red was impressive. These Shilla women were throughly modern in their adornments.
Perhaps the king's authority was symbolized not only by the power to bend Jade but to accede to the wishes of his female subjects.
Happy Queen, happy reign?
Have a good day, my friend
they too much had paid for accessories. lol.
