This item is for one pendant adornment made by the Kuchi people in Afghanistan. This was traditionally used as a textile pendant, with the circle dome at the top sewn onto a dress with the chains of ornaments dangling freely. Metal tassels and paddles hang from the chains, creating a rhythmic jingle with every movement. The noise was used to both announce ones arrival and to ward off the evil spirits. There are a number of glass cabochons embedded into the piece - although some may be missing. The pendants are all in very good condition considering their age but have visible wear. The entire piece measures about 9 inches in length. Use as is or take apart for a mixed media assemblage.
You will receive ONE of the three pieces shown in the attached images.
