AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Dive into the heart of Morocco's ancestral traditions with this duo of exceptional jewelry, true visual poems carrying history, passion, and mystery. Worn in the past by Atlas brides on the happiest day of their lives, these tribal jewels are not mere ornaments: they are talismans of love and protection, forged to endure through time. Period 1940/1970.

The Queen's Necklace – Metallic Elegance (50 cm)

A piece of rare poetry where the strength of metal meets the softness of resin.
• Length: 50 cm (laid out as a necklace).
• The Beads: This necklace is paced by magnificent and imposing amber-like beads from the Berber tradition (phenolic resin) in honey and luminous tones. Their generous dimensions of 3 cm in width and diameter make them spectacular centerpiece pieces.
• Details: A delicate chain in silver-toned metal links each bead, finely set in filigree cups, to end in a sumptuous tassel of cascading chains. A royal drape of absolute sensuality.

The Necklace of the Promise of Love – Tribal Authenticity (30 cm)

The raw, romantic charm of authentic wedding jewelry.
• Length: 30 cm.
• The Beads: A superb gradation of generous amber beads, measuring up to 2 cm in width and diameter, offering striking relief and magnetic presence around the neck.
• Details: Threaded with passion on a traditional braided cotton cord, these sun-kissed beads alternate with delicate red coral beads and etched metallic spacers. A vibrant contrast of warm colors, eternal symbol of fertility and protection against the evil eye.
• The small red Mediterranean coral beads provide a striking contrast. Historically harvested along North African coasts and transported by caravan routes to the Atlas valleys, this precious coral embodies blood, vitality, and the bride's passionate love.
• Details: Strung with passion on a traditional braided cotton cord, the sunny beads and the vibrant red coral alternate with etched metallic spacers. A sacred union of warm colors, an eternal symbol of fertility and protection against the evil eye.

Note on History & Charm
Berber amber, with its sunny hues and warm texture, reflects the Amazigh spirit. These two necklaces complement each other perfectly, whether worn together in a resolutely bohemian chic spirit, or to enrich a prestige collection of ethnic jewelry.
Letting these pieces join your story is to adopt a fragment of the desert's eternal magic and Moroccan artisanal craft.
