The focal point of the necklace is an authentic, hollow cylindrical \"Hirz\" or Ta'wiz amulet box. Historically worn by Bedouin women, these boxes were designed to safely carry protective prayers, blessings, or Quranic verses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant is suspended from a heavy, beautifully constructed 21-inch strand of hollow tribal silver spheres and intricate wire-wrapped spacer elements. Accompanied by a coordinating pair of long dangle earrings, this set offers a powerful, high-contrast bohemian look that instantly commands attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe discovered this exquisite ensemble at a private estate sale of a lifelong world traveler in California. It carries a gorgeous, authentic, naturally weathered patina that only true time-worn antiquities possess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing \u0026amp; Measurements\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNecklace Total Length: 21 inches from end to end (offers a prominent, elegant drape that frames the collarbone beautifully)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombined Set Weight: 3.9 ounces (approx. 110.5 grams) — a highly substantial, heavy weight that feels incredibly solid and premium when worn\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClosure: Traditional hook and loop style closure\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnique Character \u0026amp; Condition Notes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this is a genuine, community-worn tribal piece rather than a modern, flawless commercial reproduction, it possesses unique character variations that document its historical life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAsymmetrical Earrings: The included dangle earrings are artfully mismatched. One finishes in a classic round bead base, while the other tapers into a tiered, cone-shaped bell. This suggests a historical period repair or an intentional marriage of cherished heirloom components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMissing Charm Accent: The necklace pendant is missing one small dangling accent bell on its far-right loop. The original jump ring remains intact, allowing for an easy restoration if desired, though we have left it exactly as found to preserve its antique integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetal \u0026amp; Purity: Crafted from traditional Bedouin \"tribal silver\"—a lower-purity regional silver alloy typically melted down from old coins and mixed with copper and nickel. Please note this piece has not been chemically tested for exact metal purity and is sold strictly as an antique ethnic collectible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA striking, heavy, and undeniably unique heirloom piece for collectors of ethnic jewelry, wearable art, or Middle Eastern history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare \u0026amp; Shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare Instructions: To maintain the stunning, dark-etched antique patina, wipe gently with a dry microfiber cloth only.
