Vintage Kuchi Tribal Cuff Bracelet

Vintage Middle Eastern tribal cuff bracelet, likely of Bedouin or Central Asian origin, is crafted from mixed metal alloy and features a distinctive hinged construction. The design showcases intricate traditional craftsmanship, highlighted by repetitive horizontal rows of beaded metalwork, a raised central diamond-shaped shield, and an attached safety chain finished with a small dangling bell.

It is wonderful example of utilitarian folk jewellery from the mid 20th century, possibly earlier, typically made from durable base-metal alloys for everyday wear or dowry ornamentation. It contrasts colour between brass and silver tones in design.

 Good Vintage Condition

Age related patina and some of the silver is faded to reveal more brassy tones. Adds to its charm I think. It’s quite a solid mixed alloy piece, well constructed. So not as light as some. I polished it up a little but let the charm of the aged related patina remain.

 My handpicked jewellery is usually vintage and or preloved so please expect some signs of wear. I only sell pieces I would wear personally. The photos form part of the description so have a good nose. I delicately clean pieces in need but try and not remove patina from vintage or antique pieces as this removes the story of the piece.
