Nice Digg with a beautiful center bead. But I have a little comment on the hair jewelry for the braids from the region of Dhofar that is placed on the rings of the rod.
This is what I call artistic freedom of the wearer :) I am not in the game for collecting, just for wearing.
You are right from your way of seeing it! Jewelry for wearing is different from jewelry for collecting.
Sorry I thought you were a collector and they want things in the original condition. I will not bother you again about the way you present your items.
Hi Harald, no I am not offended, I am aware it is not the original way of how it should look but the ear ornaments where too heave to wear as such so I aded them to the necklaces (better than keep them locked in a box) as I saw that in Oman adorned too. No I am not a collector, just greedy for beautiful new items......lol
