Massive Yomud Cuff, side view

Posted by Lynn Ardent on January 27, 2015 at 6:08am

This is a massive silver Yomud cuff with carnelians and purplish stones. The carnelians range in color from strawberry to a candied orange. Covered with wire work and gilt applique. The purplish stones vary in color and may be tourmaline, garnet, or glass. In the back are fancy claws, and many have the remains of red resin decorations in the hollows in between them.This cuff was purchased by the previous owner in 1952, from Baluchistan in Iran. I am not a Turkoman expert... if anyone can share more information, I would appreciate it.Dimensions:355 grams90mm wide95mm tall
