Tribal Silver-alloy TAZRA (26cm) - Berbères (ou...

A stunning piece of Moroccan heritage, this bold Amazigh (Berber) statement necklace masterfully blends tribal energy with historic elegance. It is a mesmerizing and highly collectible adornment that instantly evokes the enchanting atmosphere of ancient caravan routes and bustling bazaars. The Raw Material & Craftsmanship: The Legendary "Loubane": Anchored by substantial, sun-colored "Loubane" beads—highly prized vintage African trade beads (phenolic copal) that have developed a deep, fiery orange patina over decades of sun and tribal wear. Enameled Tribal Silver: The large focal silver-alloy beads feature exquisite, hand-applied enamel work in vivid blue, green, and red, showcasing the masterful, unmediated touch of traditional silversmiths. Tactile Authenticity: Symmetrically balanced with vibrant coral-red and turquoise-toned trade beads, the charming irregularities of each hand-strung element guarantee its authentic, non-industrial origins. A Piece of History: In traditional Amazigh culture, a necklace of this magnitude was never merely decorative; it was a wearable treasury, a protective talisman against the evil eye, and a proud marker of tribal identity. Worn by generations of women across the Atlas Mountains, this spectacular piece carries the spirit of the desert. It offers its next custodian a tangible, wearable connection to a deeply rooted nomadic heritage. A unique opportunity for collectors of authentic, handmade artifacts. End of 20th Fast shipping and careful secure packaging.
