Hazara chain necklace with lots of dangles. A nice length for hooking longer or shorter for different costuming needs. The Hazara originated in the Hazaristan (Hazarajat) region of central Afghanistan with a few being scattered to Pakistan and Iran. Hazara jewelry is often without the larger, colorful jewels that Kuchi jewelry is known for. Hazara jewelry can be delicate, with fine etching, delicate wirework and small dangles, or can be large, simple and solid in unique shapes and designs.

We leave that choice to the buyer, as each may prefer something different.
