Silver Afghan earrings with ornament

These very old earrings from Afghanistan are an example of jewelry that has retained its character despite obvious damage and the ravages of time. Crafted from silver, with a distinctive circular ornament and irregular ends, they captivate with their raw beauty and authenticity.

The main body of the earrings is in the form of an open crescent moon with a rhythmic perforated pattern along the edge. Inside are decorative elements in the shape of six-pointed stars or flowers, the contours of which show signs of deformation and wear, making them even more intriguing.

This tribal jewelry was not created with perfection in mind – its strength lies in the traces of use, patina, and subtle cracks that bear witness to many generations. Each of these earrings could have been part of a story passed down from mother to daughter, from warrior to hearthkeeper.

For lovers of ethnic antiques, this is a unique piece – unaltered, unpolished, and telling its own story. Perfect as a collector's item or jewelry with soul for those who value authenticity over perfection.
