Salhayat necklace, Siwa Oasis, (Egypt)

Silver, red and black coral. Very similar types of necklaces, under the name of Glada or Zurraga, can be found in Libya. I would attribute this to Siwa probably because of the silver marks in some of the "hilals". In any event the exchanges between Tunisia, Libya and the Siwa Oasis are well-known.

The coral beads in black and orange are so beautiful together. The pendants all match. Quite wonderful!
