Thax sarah,u give me the answer i wanna.its a successful combine item,as Patricia says,usually sold for huge prices.whatever,they r nice.and Sarah,could u tell me will i can find nice jewelry in morocco?maybe i will travel in it later.
These have been around since I have been visiting at least, old bags with new bangles (ha ha kind of sounds like me) and usually represented to be some kind of Tuareg family bag. I think they are kind of pretty and the old leather bags are usually worth something simply because they are so heavy and substantial, unfortunately they are usually sold for huge prices. it would be great if you could actually use them but they are so very heavy that they are impractical.
just to add to what sarah wrote, the basic bag is northafrican, very old tradition. the decoration is for tourists shops and markts
I know the family who makes these, they collect old damaged leather bags and add pieces of broken Jewellery.
they are from Southern Morocco and have been making these for around 12 years
