nine hundred twenty-five - Silver - Bracciale Rigido Berbero "Swar" - Regno di Libia (Tripoli) - 1951-1969

Exceptional and monumental rigid open-band bracelet (Swar or Suarr Niguren model), a masterpiece of traditional Berber and Bedouin jewelry from North Africa.

The piece comes from the influence area between Tripoli and the Siwa Oasis.

With an extraordinary weight of 205 grams, a trait that places it in the category of the most prestigious and rare jewels, historically commissioned as a prestigious status symbol or as a central element of the dowry (mahr) for high-ranking families.

On the edge, visible in the photo, the official hallmarks of the era are clearly impressed, certifying its authenticity and historical origin.
