Ethiopian Hairpin - 2 ( backside )

Posted by Eva Baby on January 27, 2013 at 12:35pm

2,5 cm diameter, base made of brass, top silver. Unfortunately the needle is missing, made before 1945.It was not possible to add a hook or ring into the holes,even my husband did not succeed and he is pretty good at such things (one would have had to open the whole pendant and that was too risky), I glued a hook on its backside, so that it can be worn as a pendant.
