Set of three pieces - two matched tassels and a small beaded triangle piece. Handmade tribal tassels with colorful threads and white beads at the ends of the fringes. Small embroidery panels with buttons at the tops of both tassels. Central Asian peoples use tassels in their homes, on their clothing/accessories and on their animals.  Traditionally they are used to distract the evil eye and keep evil spirits from focusing on the human or animals that are wearing them. Tassels add a lot of color to your hair garden, costume or other belly dance accessories.  Plus they help to keep those evil spirits at bay!

Please check photos carefully for condition. You will receive the exact piece(s) shown in the photos on this page. This is a USED piece that has previously been used as or adorned tribal clothing, accessories, household goods, animal trappings or other items. As a previously used tribal item it may have small flaws such as loose threads, missing beads, frayed edges, may be faded or worn, or have other small flaws.

A NOTE ON THE CONDITION OF TRIBAL ITEMS: Our tribal beadwork and textile items are used tribal pieces from faraway lands. As used pieces our items may be frayed, faded or otherwise 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. 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 the cleaning process may diminish.

We do our best to describe any flaws that may be present, and we encourage you to read the full description and look at all photos closely to judge the condition of the item for yourself and know exactly what you are ordering. If you have questions about the condition of any item, please ask!
