Rustic Brass Ring and Leather Mixed Media Boho Tribal Charm Necklace
Brass Ring Charm Necklace:
Ethnic and rustic, this original everyday necklace is a unique mix of metals, stones and natural elements combined together on knotted rugged leather cord. Contrasting colors, textures, materials, the use of both modern and antique elements and the arbitrary knotting and rough nature of this artful design all give this soulful piece an aura of a sort of modern artifact. This versatile necklace easily goes right over the head and can be worn with anything, anywhere and by both men and women.
The large brass ring is an ancient ring from Africa. These rings will vary as they are usually found on old belts in Nigeria and Cameroon. Among the other elements in this piece are Awala Venetian chevron trade beads, beads of terra cotta, bone, horn, brass and bronze, a yellow turquoise donut, a pewter wrapped cross, tea-dyed bone pendant, and brass fish charm. There really is no “yellow turquoise” but this serpentine stone is known by the jewelry trade as such.
