Authentic earrings from Afghanistan, crafted by local artisans using the traditional technique of setting glass in a light metal resembling silver. The decoration is characteristic of ethnic nomadic jewelry – with a geometric, slightly bold form.
The dominant accent is the stained-glass eyelets of red and green glass set in a three-part, geometric frame. The upper part of the earrings is adorned with a metal cap resembling a helmet with a visor, a common motif in jewelry from the border regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The earrings are not hallmarked. In similar pieces, the alloy typically shows a silver content of around 70-80%. However, due to the lack of an official hallmark, they should be considered jewelry made of a light metal of undetermined composition.
This model is perfect both as a piece of jewelry for special occasions and as a unique addition to a collection of oriental tribal jewelry. Due to the handcrafted nature and age, slight asymmetries are possible – a testament to its authenticity.
