what a wonderful combination! Beautiful piece!
This is lovely Ann .. the combination of the necklace against this background. Hope the serious fire problems have now abated and that life is getting back to normal.
beautiful combination , the necklace looks very nice. i like the color and form combination. different from eachother but fit together very nice.
the Kabyl pendants are great and fit with the kifa beads and khamssas
Wonderful combination and colourful background.
Gorgeous necklace. That middle khamsa is a true treasure.
Thanks everyone for your comments, I am humbled! I haven't actually finished designing it yet and hope to buy more kabyle (one of my favourite), plus attach the small silver coins. And I think the kiffa actually go quite well with the rest. Its all through you folk that I get my ideas, from the beautiful ethnic jewellery of the world........wonderful and I love it all to death.
The textile underneath is a little bag made of antique Thai material. Quite delicious.
What this tells me is that taste, judgement and a romantic heart are involved in this creation!
Wait till April, your sure to see more Kabyle items on the tour.
