  • Very interesting design. I wonder whether the two small cylinders  were used for amulets?

  • Thanks for your nice comment Mustafa! Maybe it is possible to hide some pieces of rolled up paper with text in the tubes..The qarmal ornaments are hollow. The chain is running through it. I am afraid paper or amulets can fall out easy .Thanks for mention the idee of hiding amulets...
