Old Nuristani/Nurestani/Nooristani earrings with a 12G/2mm thick ear wire. Traditional bud droplet, jingling baubles, and both coiled elements and beads on the post. I am not sure of the exact metal content. It may contain some silver but these have a subtle golden color, which means they more likely are made of a brass alloy. Regardless, these are a lovely example of jewelry from Eastern Afghanistan.
About 4.75" long. There are surface scratches on the plain beads - perhaps from an attempt at cleaning with a wire brush, or similar. They are in the same condition as I sourced them. The earrings have an aged appearance. There is pattern wear, patina, and oxidation. Such a rare find, considering the current political climate of Afghanistan.
These weigh 2.6 ounces together, or 1.3 ounces each. The baubles make a sound with movement both to announce your presence and to ward off the evil eye.
