Doesn't look Moroccon to me. I would place it more to Lybian? Now I am curious. I base this on its more simple heavy silver clean material. I have also no idea what they are? I am going to keep an eye on the comments coming in. Gr. Ingrid.
These look like temporal ornaments.
Hey Hillary …the collector from where they come from ..he said are fibulas ….if they are …are missing ring and …or only pin ???

It looks to me of more one thing put together to make these pieces. These tome are not a familiar Libyan pair?? I am not sure whether they are Libyan? If so they are conformed of pieces put together.
Interesting and new to me. Unfortunately I cannot help with their identification, but I like their simple and solid look very much.

as in my previous comment ..i found a similar pair on Pinterest …from Goulmina …2 hours north of Zagora ..so not that far away….Kisses..Angelo
