Coral Uzbekistan Pendant Silver Necklace “ERBIL” N653

‘ERBIL” A city on the old Silk Road

This wonderful pendant is an orphan earring,, and we all know we don’t ditch our earrings. This one has been around since the 1800’s, all the way from Uzbekistan.  It’s a magnificent piece of silverware, with intricate chains working into the coral.  In the middle of the pendant and the back of the necklace, I’ve put a lucky silver Tuareg bead from Morocco which is supposed to keep the traveller safe. It’s flanked by two Uzbekistan beads. This is light and lovely, and full of history.
