  • These are hallmarked - hope someone can help me ID the mark. Photo below. Thanks!2506019271?profile=original

  • These are Khrab and worn either side of the head.

    From northern Morocco and closely related to the pendants which Patti collects. They are hall marked for Fes 1925. ( check for a tiny F in the corner of the stamp ).

    Nice pieces. S x
  • Thank you Sarah! Thrilled to hear it's old! Now to figure out how I can wear these...

  • Preethi, they can be worn as bracelets.

  • Preethi, so you got these!  ;-)  Good job!

  • Hillary, yes, I snapped them up! Couldn't say no to that price :)

    Patti, great idea - they are a little too big as bracelets, but I just may be able to pull that off. Thank you! I'm a bit like a horse with blinkers on, and was only focusing on how I could these on to my ears.

  • Preethi I have the same ones and wanted to wear them but seller mislead me on how thick the wire was ;(((

  • Marie-Ange, what a shame....I know what you mean by the thin wires, and I'm using one of these in the middle with a number of other thin bangles on either side.

  • Preethi you are lucky to have very fine wrists, am sure it looks quiet nice!
