  • A fantastic pectoral and a great picture to show how it was worn. Thank you for sharing both with us,  Peter. We do not get to see much Albanian jewelry... but it is most fascinating as it somehow shows the connection between Balkan Ottoman and European folk jewelry. At least to me...

  • Wonderful! Such a cheerful and important piece

  • Wow!!. This a regal piece Peter.

  • Wow I am speechless. You have some pieces that I can only dream to own.
