Silver Tuareg Half Moon Pendant Necklace; Tribal Jewelry; ethnic jewelry

Make a statement with this gorgeous necklace which features a Engraved Moon Pendant from Niger crafted in traditional Tuareg design, strung with 4mm black obsidian and facetted rectangular carnelian beads. The pendant is hand made from an alloy of white metal (nickel free); the tubular spacer beads are sterling silver.

The Tuareg are a nomadic desert tribe that inhabits a broad expanse of territory stretching from the edges of the Saharan desert of Morocco to the north as far as Burkina Faso in the south. Each pendant features a unique design that may include the Milky Way, Berber Cross, Southern Cross, Shooting Star or other motifs made from white metal. Each pendant measures approximately 27x23mm in size.
