This is a nice one with the enameling. I have one without, these are unusual.

Hi Linda,

Non enameled ones are beautiful as well, i do have one too, but bear in mind that they do not come from the same area, matter of fact they are not even moroccan but from the algerian sahara.

I thought i had a photo of mine. I'll take a photo in a day or so and post it. I also thought I had seen same published (without enameling) also listed as Morocco but can not be sure, I thought the shape being so similar would have been the same. Also the surface work didn't seem Algerian to me but I'm not familiar wiht all jewerly from Algeria.
