Vintage handmade Afghan Turkmen dangle earrings featuring teardrop shaped blue lapis lazuli set into mixed metal drops with articulated looped connectors. The earrings have traditional hand fabricated construction with aged silver and brass tone metal, textured details and a substantial old world tribal look. Metal appears consistent with the alpaka/mixed metal commonly used in Afghan jewelry; metal content has not been tested. The lapis displays natural variation in shades of deep cobalt and lighter blue. Unmarked. Good vintage condition with age appropriate patina, oxidation and surface wear; please see photos for close details.
