TUAREG
Veilweights 101
21.5" h
$700
SOLD

Famous for their jewelry, the Tuareg employ the same elaborate aesthetic when fashioning their inventive veil weights which are used by women to hold their headcloths in place. These assrou n' swoul, which resemble the large decorative keys for camel bag padlocks, are forged from geometric layers of silver, brass and copper.

The measurement is the height of the metal stand. It is included in the price. The veilweights, including the ring and leather strap, range from 9" - 12.75".
