Bella-001

I've always loved the delicate structure of Bellas, and have been intrigued by the dialogue of their use. I once found one on a beautifully worn leather amulet, and sold it to a customer in Paris ... but it got "lost" on the way, never arrived, and I had to repay his payment, shipping and insurance and lost the bella to boot. I was heartbroken. Now I have my own collection! All found in Morocco.

Very nice, I have only one or two, I really love these pieces, but they are not so easy to be found!

I am keeping out of the discusion about Coran page markers to avoid disputes.

You really have a wonderful collection!
