Metal - Afghanistan - 20th century

A distinctive vintage Afghan tribal metal cuff bracelet from the 20th century. The open cuff is finely decorated with hand-engraved geometric patterns and features two floral motifs at the ends of the opening, each decorated with colourful glass beads. The curved form and detailed surface work give the bracelet a strong traditional tribal character.
An attractive example of traditional Afghan tribal jewellery and metal craftsmanship, showing natural signs of age and use.
