Coin Necklace, Afghan, Vintage Necklace, Middle Eastern, Beaded, Blue, Kuchi

This is a great nomadic gypsy bohemian look! Done in traditional style, the vintage Middle Eastern coins hang from a neckpiece. An ornate center pendant is bell shaped and has little dangles. The necklace section features cranberry red wrapped thread and closed with a button. The portion of the necklace that has the coin pendants is done with glass blue seed beads that are wrapped around the cording. Wear this on it's own or layer it with more necklaces for a big statement. Please keep in mind that most Kuchi and Turkoman / Turkmen / Turkomen items are old and used items with a distinct aged patina. They are a nomadic Afghan people who have created amazing jewelry for centuries. Their colorful jewelry combines new, old, metal, beads, coins, stones and fabric. Many pieces are worn due to being used from every day wear, tribal celebrations, belly dance and wedding uses. They are made with a coin-base metal alloy.

This is much more beautiful in real life! I am not an expert on vintage jewelry, but I do buy and sell what I love! Since these items are vintage, they may have a wonderful aged patina and are not meant or expected to look brand new. I treasure their imperfections as part of their charm and history.
