Afghan Tribal Jewelry - Handcrafted Cuff Bracelet with 2 Birds
This unusual bracelet is made with turquoise and carnelian red beads with 2 birds facing each other. Nature is highly revered in Afghan and Turkmen cultures, with natural objects often being represented in artwork and adornments such as this bracelet. Birds in particular are greatly prized for their multiple roles as hunting partners (hawk), symbol of renewal and longevity (peacock), strength (eagle), and devoted love and femininity (facing doves).
This great contemporary bracelet was handcrafted by Turkmen Tribal Jewelry artisans living in Peshawar along the Afghan border. Made from Alpaca, a combination of lead-free metals with the look of silver. Mild patina and signs of wear. Price is for one bracelet.
