Authentic Kuchi earrings, handcrafted from silver estimated at 800 fineness. Their design captivates with its numerous moving elements – the long pendants are topped with beads and silver teardrops, which, when moved, produce a distinctive sound, a hallmark of Afghan nomadic jewelry.
Red beads – a symbol of energy and protection – contrast with the matte silver, giving the piece a vibrant, ritual character. These earrings were worn both as adornment and as a talisman. Such jewelry served not only as embellishment but also as protection against the evil eye and to emphasize a woman's identity.
At the top of the earrings, a central setting with red glass or a colored stone is visible, and the entire piece is mounted on a classic hook. The handmade pieces reveal irregularities and signs of wear, which add to their charm and authenticity.
This is unique jewelry with a history – perfect for lovers of ethnic styles, collectors of unique items, and anyone seeking jewelry that conveys a deeper cultural and emotional message.
