    Especially brilliant!

    So detailed! Is the pattern left to the creativity of the craftsman/artist or does the decor reflect the identity of a group/tribe/region?

    This work is closely related to the mauritanian silversmiths but it is not. It is from the saharauian area of South Morocco. I just added some information of my pictures. Hope you like them.

    Is this for the ankle or the wrist?

    Traditionally used in the anklet.
