  • These are all just wonderful. Private collection?

  • These were just procured in Niger.  Some will be for sale.  They are all amazing and unique.  Some have heavy wear, others less, but the designs are incredible.  You can tell the size of the pendants from the seadbeads

  • i will certainly pay attention to them when they are up for sale.

  • Even the design of the seedbeads is exquisite.

  • Beautiful. A mix of Tuareg and african styles.Unusual....and  they   look  quite old , not recent work...Great find Hillay.

  • Gorgeous, never seen such style  before in all those years! 

  • verry beautiful and unusual all of them.  they belong to the tchatchats pendants. i guess restriged in Niger . they are using this kind of beads since longer . specialy the areas where there is a mix between the fulani and touareg.

    congratulation for the authentic, beautiful unusual pieces. i love all of them

  • it takes time to comment on each one. they have symbols of fertility, protection and luck
