Up for your consideration is this gorgeous singel antique Yomud Turkoman temporal/earring! This is an antique traditional piece, and is in its original tribally worn condition and configuration. This is a large earring which exhibits extensive silver workmanship with remnants of gold fire gilding, and a red glass cabochon inset. The glass stone measures approximately 8mm in diameter.
Overall this earring measures 3 1/4" long (top to bottom), by 3" deep, and 10mm wide at the bottom. This earring weighs 19 grams on my digital scale.
This temporal is in overall excellent original condition, exhibiting lovely original patina and wear from tribal use. It is made from high grade silver (800+) as it is an old original piece, not a low quality reproduction. Circa late 1800's-early 1900's.
