Kuchi jewellery is a traditional ethnic style of jewellery associated with the Kuchi tribe of Afghanistan.

Kuchi tribespeople are nomadic gypsies from the mountainous regions of southern and eastern Afghanistan, and more recently Pakistan.

The rich and fascinating history of this ancient tribe is reflected through exotic Afghan jewellery pieces that radiate tribal energy, exuberant colour and creative artistry.

Traditionally worn to adorn the body for momentous occasions including weddings, childbirth and tribal celebrations, Kuchi jewellery features elaborate antique jewellery designs including necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings handmade from beautiful old coins, tassels and beads.

These colourful pieces are made up of their vintage coins and bells, glass, and fabrics, and metals are nickel silver.

They can be used to adorn the head or be part of a belt. Use it as a neckpiece, or adorn your handbag.

Measures approximately 25cm.
