- Lot Description
Central Asia, Turkmenistan and Afghanistan, Turkoman (Turkman) Tekke peoples, ca. 19th century CE. A beautiful cast-silver bracelet consisting of four horizontal panels adorned with incised scrollwork motifs and three inlaid ovoid agate stones each. The exterior surfaces are covered in a thin layer of 12K gilding which imbues a faint golden hue to the bright silver surface, and the opening is lined with 14 small prongs. The solid construction of the bracelet means that the size cannot be adjusted, but this certainly does not detract from the striking nature of this accessory! Size: 2.875" W x 4.5" H (7.3 cm x 11.4 cm); size of wrist opening (at widest point): 2.375" W (6 cm); quality of silver: 88%; quality of gilding: 12K; total weight: 277.7 grams.
