wow! What a beautiful variation of the Egerou (it was written in many places to be called Egourou, now I checked in the book by Jean Burner, and Egeru is correct it seems...). Anyway, it is a very beautiful piece... and I am just a bit, a tiny little little jealous, that I do not have one like this. Besides, the photo looks as if it were of good silver!
Thanks Eva! I'm very proud of these tuareg silver pieces!
this is indeed a special one! (I have a contemporary and an old one, but not of this special type,posted earlier).I particularly like here also the material (of course the workmanship is the most important, but the silver looks really very good and there seems a lot of it on this item!!!)
