For this writer, this is a genius, fabulous piece.  Jewels collects these fabulous 17th – 19th century Moroccan silver coins as much as possible.  They vary in quality and patina and this particular group is outstanding.  The work, all hand made of course, is so crisp and well executed: superbly stitched and tied leather by the most talented Khadija.  Because details matter, we also made a hand woven cord within the leather

One of a kind

Average coin: 7/8 x 3/4″
Necklace length: 19″ (a bit adjustable)

A note about the silver…. If it appears to have a red or yellow hue this is the fault of the photographer.  The coins and chain on this piece are high content silver, sterling, sparkling and gorgeous.

A Jewels Standard Limited Design; no two exact

 

A note about our woven cords.  We weave these by hand, every one of them.   Like all Jewels’ work no two are exact, as each of us.  The work is labor intensive.  When warmed to the skin the cord becomes more supple, conforms to the wearer, hangs at it should; the necklace transforms more than just a necklace.  It becomes her.
