  • Superb pair.

  • They look very rich and such heavy silver. Will you wear them?

  • Hi Toya, no too big to wear  :(  :(

  • toya, they are anklets, kabyle call them khalkhals

  • They will certainly be beautiful displayed with other treasures.

  • Fabulous pair! I have a single one of the type and have worn it above the elbow. Works beautifully with summer dresses.

  • Stunning pair, I love the heavy rims bottom and top and  so refined and wonderfully decorated.  Those swirls and floral bands are they first made and than soldered on top you think.  Really beautiful. I have seen seen Tunesian and Algerian art work such as their embroidery p.e. also  stunning.  I think their skill is on a very high level.  Perhaps that could come from long ago when these countries were also part of Italie, because the longer I look at them  they remind me of the balkan  region. Absolutely beautiful. Gr. Ingrid.
