Vintage Hazara tribal pendant with floral etched design. This pendant is in vintage condition with some dings. Metal color is mostly silvery, but is tarnished and a little dark in some places.

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. The Hazara people have retained their own customs and traditions which are closely related to those of Central Asia.
