Another rare and unusually beautifully made Rashaida piece. I just love the star...
The carefully adorned coins are fantastic too, as is the minute granulation. Top-shelf, as you say!
Thank you Betty.
Wonderful necklace, love the moon-stars with the dotted decorations!
This is very elegant indeed Ingrid. I also love the way the dots are arranged on the piece. Very special. You are right about the rupees but I really like the way they are arranged on this necklace. A beauty! With kind regards. Peter
Thank you Peter, The photo does look a bit distorted most probably the way I took it. In reality it is a joy to look at it and to touch it. I love solid weight of silver jewelry. That is also one reason I love the Oman jewelry like several of your pieces you displayed to us. I have never had any in my hands, but on photo's they look so sumptious like several of your pieces you displayed. Gr. Ingrid
I love this piece Ingrid. Thank you for showing it.
Thank you Nada. it is a good piece of workmanship and of a good solidity. My pleasure to display. Gr. Ingrid.
