Eva, Chantal, speaking of playing cards, I have to add this, picture I took in the Jewish cemetery in Fez. I love your use of those silver pieces!
I have just seen your picture and am surprised! Thanks for adding it! I imagine that these motives are used by various Berber people, ( the Tuareg count in the large sense also to the Berber). I do not know what these motives mean, but it is interesting. I have seen such motives from playing cards also on rings, there must be a photo of such a ring among my photos here, but I have to check first.
