Antique Berber Silver Hinged Cuff Bracelet from Morocco - This antique silver cuff bracelet is attributed to the Berber (Amazigh) people of Morocco, specifically resembling the Tanbelt style from the Tiznit or Khenifra regions. The piece is constructed from silver and features a wide, hinged design. The exterior is decorated with intricate, multi-banded metalwork including horizontal rows of twisted wire filigree, scrollwork, and a central register of pierced triangular geometric cutouts. The bracelet is accented with four bezel-set cabochon inserts, consisting of two red and two light blue stones, likely glass or semi-precious materials such as carnelian and turquoise-colored stone. The closure mechanism utilizes a vertical metal pin that passes through interlocking loops, secured by two attached safety chains. No hallmarks, maker marks, or purity stamps are visible on the interior or exterior surfaces.
