Antique Taliouine Enamelled Pendant - Round
£120.00
A small antique Amazigh (Berber) pendant likely to be from the Taliouine/Ighil n'Oghou region of Morocco, made by Jewish silversmiths in the 1920s.
This old high-grade silver circular pendant exhibits very fine craftsmanship comprising filigree work, cloisonné, granulation and old powdered enamelling in the traditional colours of this region. The pendant is very thin but solid and has an ornate bail making it still very wearable if desired.
A highly collectible piece.
