Antique Berber Silver Necklace and Earring Set with Coral

The three corals in the center plate depict three saharan tribes - nomads, berbers and touaregs. The five chains (Khamsa - arabic for 'five') represent the five fundamental principles of Islam. At the end of the chains are the hand of fatima to protect the wearer from evil.

A rare find.

The necklace is 23 inches long, matching earrings are 3 inches long.
