This striking vintage Afghan Kuchi necklace features a dramatic, statement-scale design anchored by a large circular central medallion with intricate inlay work. The centerpiece showcases a mosaic of deep red stones framed by rings of turquoise-colored stones set into a dark ground. The medallion is surrounded by heavily worked silver-tone metal adorned with raised repoussé details, stamped accents, and applied domed elements that give the piece substantial texture and an unmistakably handcrafted feel. Flowing from the central medallion are cascading strands of traditional Kuchi coin charms, each individually attached to create movement, sound, and a beautifully weighted drape. The coins display stamped motifs and a softly aged patina consistent with vintage jewelry. Rectangular side panels echo the central design, each inlaid with matching red and turquoise-colored stones and bordered with bead-like metal detailing. The upper section transitions into layered coin chains and a simple chain with a lobster clasp closure. This necklace embodies classic Afghan Kuchi craftsmanship with its ornate metalwork, symbolic coin elements, and vibrant stone inlay, making it a powerful statement piece!
Medallion: 3”, Necklace Length 23”, Weight 150g
It is our mission to be 100% transparent and honest about any and all issues found, but all of our items are vintage - which means most of them have been worn, used and may have minor issues. In the event that we have overlooked an issue, it was not because we misrepresented the item, it is because the issue was not apparent enough to demand our attention. We can only apologize for our oversight and hope you can either repair the issue or resell the item but we do not accept returns for items we have photographed and listed online.
