  • Breathtaking!  I had not seen it before just catching a glimpse as it played on the screen.  Lovely.

  • The enamel is very nicely preserved here.

  • Anna Garner-

    Thanks very much!   I love the blue, and gold and silver together is so different.

  • I had no appreciation of sun and moon bangles untill I saw one enamelled. To me that puts them into an entirely different class.

    The blue champ-leveed enamelling puts me so much in mind  of the Multan enamelled moon bracelet that Amir supplied me with.

    Maggie, yours is lovely!

  • HI Frankie,

    Thanks! Champ-levee enamel is an old style here found in Northern-style and Jewish-made pieces and is delicate as well.  If you want, take a look at this new Ebay listing of enameled bangles, unusual-

  • @Maggie, Scrumptious!  Thanks for the link. 

  • That is most surprising to me, Maggie, in that I had not known of such before. The Jewish bracelets are delicate and lovely. Together, as you have them, they make a great impact.

    ( I don`t suppose you know it but I have actually faintly heard your voice on the phone!).

  • HI Frankie,

    Thanks, I am glad you like them.  How have you heard my voice on the phone?  Were you in Marrakech with Sarah when I Skyped her about her web site? :)

    Maggie

  • I don`t know what you were discussing but, yes, Sarah and I were taking a little refreshment together in the riad when you called.

    Iam, of course, familiar with your website too.

    Frankie.
