    All Koran holders from Yemen, and they all look good and early. Well worth collecting. See my comment on the other photo, too.

    Beautiful and top quality craftmanship.  You really know how to choose Isabel Iglesias Especially having seen other beautiful items you displayed.  Good eye and refined taste.  Gr. Ingrd.

    Isabel, I see that you have labeled them as Yemen, but they are also used in Ethiopia, I do have a number  of these scroll holders but collected in Ethiopia.

    Thank you Ingrid to your comments on my items...always good to know that in Ethiopia they have similar scrolls...

    I have bought in Ethiopia some nice crosses and also pendents and earrings...

    I have items that I have not posted, as I had no time...Maybe now that I have a broken arm and must spent time at home,I will take some photos and post them...always good to share and have comments!!
