27 X 5 pull over head original afghan necklace - beautiful brassy metal color and nicely polished
pom poms with little button on them - this is a wonderful piece from my collection
a collectors piece
Since these women and girls NEVER show any skin the majority of their necklaces are chokers or fairly short . it is easy enough to just add some ribbon and make it longer -
- very hard to get nice original pieces anymore - Most of what I see on line from Pakistan is newly made but very cheap . This is collectible
When I was selling LOTS of my customers liked the older pieces look - the market was not as flooded with new cheap afghan jewelry - as internet was not as happening .
I am not even sure if they buffed up the old stuff in the 90s like they might today. problem for me is too much buffing and it looks so so cheap - the metal bends and its just junk to me. This is REAL - crud and all
Just pulled these pieces from my locker and they have never been to any market since I purchased them from 1993-2006.
I was that "crazy" shopper lady in the market full of tribal Afghan men who literally would buy $1000s of dollars of this stuff. I way way way overbought
and sold at gift shows - Tucson Gem fair - a myriad of California dance festivals and the more commercial items wholesale at the Trade shows -
then PANDEMIC came and I had all this time and STUFF - now I do this - first time on internet. so forgive my amateur photos etc
i ship everything with tracking and insurance via post office . may be a bit more but nothing has ever been lost offers
