Description: Old Nuristani/Nurestani/Nooristani earrings with a 10G/2.6mm thick ear wire. Traditional droplet shape with coiled elements and beads on the post. I am not sure of the exact metal content. It may contain some silver but these have a subtle golden color, which means they more likely are made of a brass alloy. Regardless, these are a lovely example of jewelry from Eastern Afghanistan. About 5.5" long. These weigh nearly 4 ounces together, or 2 ounces each. There are surface scratches on the plain surfaces - perhaps from an attempt at cleaning with a wire brush, or similar. They are in the same condition as I sourced them. The earrings have an aged appearance. There is pattern wear, patina, and oxidation. Such a rare find, considering the current political climate of Afghanistan.
