TRAVELER - Vintage Kuchi Coin Necklace, Red Coral Afghan Tribal Handmade Jewelry

About:

For thousands of years coins have been used the world over to show wealth by decorating clothing and being worn as jewelry and other adornments. The unique TRAVELER handmade necklace features a vintage mixed metal and opaque red glass Kuchi coin pendant handcrafted in Afghanistan. Just imagine the artist who originally fashioned the tribal pendant. How many hands did the pendant have to pass through and the distance it had to travel to end up as the beautiful focal on this particular necklace! To perfectly highlight the Kuchi pendant, red coral oval shaped beads were used, along with pewter hexagon beads and sterling silver. Created for the woman who adores wearing unique ethnic inspired jewelry, the one of a kind TRAVELER necklace was carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs.
