  • very lovely necklace, nice to also see the photos of the details !

  • Eva, thank s . the light is not optimal, i try tomorrow with the daylight

  • thank s akkie, i like too. nowadays, it is difficult to find semilar pieces. there is some in antique stores or jewelry store. almost not complet and not for sale , just expothus pices of coral are big and sold separatly for the amount of money they get.they were sold in the past in europe, specialy france and italy. now everywhere,most of buyers are from china, they pay a lot for. even in Algeria ,this coral is getting sold expensive.

    i was glad i could get this one, i had to clean it a bit and pool it together

  • the close coin is an old ottoman coin. we call them soltani

  • Very much like it, Ait. A wonderful piece.

  • It is lovely, quite simple, and, probably lighter. More wearable for the Westerner.

  • Wonderful Ait. A masterpiece.

  • @Ait Ouakli: photos do turn better in daylight, that is true. This beauty deserves to try again, although the photo is not bad at all, but sometimes one can "bring out the best of it" when trying several photos (in various light conditions). Daylight is usually better (except in very bright sunshine, then there is another problem.. but now, in Europe the very bright daylight is probably gone until next summer).

  • It's beautiful and very wearable.  I've nevever seen one if it 's not on the books. A collectors necklace!

  • thank you all.

    when i bought it, i was not sure about the deal, it was all a part, the wire was kompletly broken and some pieces were missing. i payed a high price for it because it was for almost 1 year and the silver and coral prices were and are still verry high.

    i collected what was missing and did it more wearabl for westerner as Patricia wrote.it is arround 44 cm what is good for every day and wearabl with different cloths. it is a bit lighter but not so much. it is 132 gr
