Lovely Toya! I especially like the rectangular pendant with the granulation. Is it possible it is from the southeastern oases in Algeria? It seems to be the same style as those spiky bracelets with out the enamel. Glad to see you found some beads, I didn't find any in Tucson this year!
Yes Hillary, I finally found the black coral beads I have been hunting. I agree, the silver pendant looks like Algeria to me, too. The side pendants are attached to it and I was told they all go together, but the two styles look a bit different ot me. I'll post some pics of them.
.Beautiful prayer beads and pendant. Great find. I love the metal/silver inlay.
spot on ladies
the box is definetely algerian and 2 perfume holders and coins from MOrocco were added to it. Nice balance though
