  • very nice too!

  • These come in different patterns, very nice and wearable.

  • Warms my heart.  The antiques dealers in Kabul always had to have one of these in their display cases.  It was the hottest item on the ex-patriots' wish lists while I lived there in 1974,75.  We had two, but I sold one last year.

  • I think you should keep the last one for you.

  • It is always something to consider, but it has beautiful  Turkoman silver bell beads as the focal section on the piece.  It is rather loud if I wear it.  ;)

  • Oh that one is yours, saw it on Vividvault, yes I guess the bells make it extra loud, mine makes soft noice as the large silver beads rub over each other.

  • Pleasing piece!
