Pretty vintage Kuchi hair clip with jewels and a functional hair clip on the back. Lots of detailed dangles that reflect stage lighting. Clip-back pendants such as this one can be worn in the hair or clipped to anything that needs some adornment! Perfect for a hair garden or adding to headpieces. The story of Kuchi jewelry, like all tribal jewelry, is rich with influences from many cultures. These beautiful pieces with colorful glass jewels and jingling bells originally came from the nomadic Pashtoon tribes that wandered the border areas of Afghanistan and Pakistan, along ancient routes between the seasons, moving down from the mountains in the winter and back to higher elevations in the summer.
