Subject:cuff bracelet
Posted By: david Fri, Mar 23, 2018 IP: 2607:fea8:1d5f:f819: Hello, I realize that this item is NOT Asian but it appears to have some age to it! Is it a cuff bracelet of sorts? and can anyone identify the inset material and perhaps this item's region of origin! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! David. |

Posted By: sue Sun, Mar 25, 2018 Hi, this is from Turkmenistan or northern Afghanistan. Probably Tekke tribe. It will be handmade with some fire gilding on a silver base. The stones look to be glass. They are imitating carnelians that would be found on more upmarket versions. Probably a dowery item . Earlier 20thc. |
