19th century, Amazigh (Berber), Morocco
A most wonderful amulet of the pearly shell with incised design remains. It is difficult to describe how wonderful this piece is and the images are woefully inadequate. The shape retains the curve of the shell and the color is the richness, luminescence of the pearl. Our talented silversmith made the sterling bed and ring.
One of a kind
