Turkoman style cuff bracelets pair with traditional “teeth” in the back. Handcrafted with banding and wirework. Mixed metals in both a silvery color, and banding in a golden hue. This style is from Northern Afghanistan. The Turkmen have remained very well known for their horses, the Akhal-Teke desert horse and, of course, for their unique and beautiful jewelry traditions. Add some Turkoman style to your dance wardrobe!

Condition: Believed new. I can’t tell for sure if these are new-made to look a bit vintage, or if they are actually in used condition and just polished to a shine.
The style of the teeth would normally indicate that these are new pieces.
This item is a PAIR of cuff bracelets as shown in the photos on this page.

A NOTE ON THE CONDITION OF TRIBAL ITEMS: Our jewelry is used tribal jewelry, from faraway lands. As used pieces the condition of our items will reflect their prior lives as treasured tribal pieces. Please know that we strive to maintain the tribal allure of our items and therefore we do not clean or repair these pieces in any way. We leave that choice to the buyer, as each may prefer something different. This not only maintains the old, tribal look of each piece that our belly dance customers seek, but also preserves the value of a piece that cleaning might diminish.
