Khamseh with pearls

Posted by Edith D on September 28, 2011 at 1:01pm

Just to prove that sometimes one can still find a bargain, I recently purchased the pair of these for 50TD (about $30-35US). The longer is 5cm and smaller about 4cm. The fingers are decorated with rings. Don't know if the gems are real or glass. Typical of Tunis urban jewelry.

i find these such a delight! I`m sure the pearls are real - surely hardly worth the production of glass ones. Have you done the teeth test, Edith?

Yes, the pearls are real...but the gems are most likely glass.

Ah, I understand now, Edith. I read your description too hastily.

I love the finger ring detail!

Edith,facinating pieces especially the left one with the gold guilding in my view the more superior piece to the right one. You have either square eyes going through the different commercial sites or a fantastic trained eye. Well done.
