  • splendid. it is beautiful and exceptionel piece until mysteriouse. is it possible other vieuws fotos ??

    is it with ebony or some hard plastic feeling the dark piece inside  ??

  • Very nice bracelet -I know the style, but have never seen one like this before. Really Special! What is the dark ring (lining) inside? It Looks like Wood (?).

  • in full size foto, i could recognise that ebony is. very specila piece. not usual with a chaine

  • Yes, it is wood. Actually there is minor repair at front by way of a tiny metallic staple.

  • thank you jose, yes i saw the reparing it is why i was sure it is wood, the silver zigzag is a commun way to repare wood in sahara

  • Can tehe inside also be horn? Atilope?

    beautiful bracelet!

  • Thank you very much Harald. I had the same feeling but on a closer inspection it is wood. By the way, I visited some weeks ago the Tareq Rajab Museum in Kuwait and remembered your comments on Siwan aghrow (adrim). The ends of the one kept there do not certainly meet and, although I cannot be so firm on this, I would say that there were indeed nine twist or turns in the loop one.
