Yes I am with Siwa
Very nice! Azza Fahmy in her book on Egyptian jewelry puts them down as typical from the Sinai.
Preeethi, here you are. did you buy some azza fahmy jewels ??
Hi Ait, yup, loads :) Will post photos in a few days.
my opinion, this sample is from all the area there. i saw even some coming from lybia.
i was actualy watching this necklaces since longer. i never had evidences that is a very old pattern made in the area. it could be transformed or 2 different patterns together.
it is a verry nice bracelet and the form is beautiful, it is still, missing in my eyes the deep ethnic touch.
no doubt a collectible kind of jewelry
ooh yes Preethi, please post fotos and specialy the azza fahmy ones :-)
