Dear Nazir; This is some beautiful stuff! When I was working and living in Cairo, there was a shop, which had quite a good number of Afghani and Pakistani jewelry. I really love the pink glass stones on silver jewelry. The two colors make each other stand out beautifully! Thank you for posting this. With kind regards. Peter
This is fascinating, Nazir. It would be so interesting to see some of the individual pieces. For instance there is a long, beautifully decorated piece in the middle of the picture and a similar piece hiding under some of the jewellery on the right. What are they? do you have a photo you could show?
