Late 19th century Ersari Turkoman Cuffs. Characterised by etched silver work and lack of carnelian embelishements of Tekke work. Archaic antrhopomorphic figures (snake design) and overlaid silver flower and seedpod design provide nice highlights to this pair. In good condition, though with a few minor repairs and at least two missing seadpod beads (paisley.) Large enough that they can be easily worn, great stage presence. - There is some flexibility to these.
