Bracelets de cheville
Morocco, dated 1293H. (=1875-6)
Pair of silver and silver-gilt peg rings. In two parts, they are hinged and closed by a pin held by a chain. Each part widens strongly at 7 cm from the hinge, forming a decreasing curve until the opening.
On a silver plate are riveted gilded silver plates with openwork patterns on a red background and forming interlacing decorated with blue and green enamels; four cabochons, hollow half-spheres with a gadrooned face, are fixed by polygonal head rivets. Two rings welded on the edge receive the chains which, joined at their end by a circular ring, hold the pin.
Punches of Fez to the tower and punches of ram.
Diam. 10 cm
