AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Antique silver necklace of good quality with pendant typical of the Rabaris tribes of Rajasthan, mid-20th century and for the chain around 1980
This type of pendant is a common object used to clean the ear (a spoon-shaped pendant) and to clean the teeth (a pointed toothpick pendant). The cabochons made of red and green glass paste are the colors commonly used by these nomadic tribes, who have now settled in makeshift camps on the outskirts of towns.
Suspended on a so-called snake chain, probably made of 800 silver.
Very nice effect when worn
Length of the chain 42 cm
Pendant length 9 cm
Weight 67 g
