  • I have seen photos of Ida ou Semlal pieces with finer work - would that be because of the smith or the customer or are there different patterns used within the community?

  • Hi love, this is not an original arrangement. I tend to see finer workmanship on older pieces, these are often very worn.
  • Thanks Sarah! Do you have any images that show good old pieces please? I'd also like to know how the original closures were, if possible.

  • Beautiful necklace!

  • lovely Preethi did you buy it?

  • The pieces originally would be strung between two fibulae.

  • Thanks Sarah.
    M-A, yes, I purchased this as part of a lot. I'll enjoy wearing it, but still looking for a good set of semlal pendants with the fine work.
