Strange how North african earrings (Aures/Algeria, Tunisia/Egypt ) look like nose rings......Easy to confuse. Thanks God for old postcards. Beautiful piece.

The truth is that they are sometimes quite similar to errings. I guess that the hook is somewhat simpler than that of an earring, there is usually no fastener ort clasp and the hook does not usually has a "full" length. Lastly but not less important I have had the benefit of seeing some of this or very similar kind identified as such.

I missed on an opportunity to obtain this piece. Are you willing to sell it? I love the design.
