<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BMRT, post: 701391, member: 10892&quot;]They mostly seem to be worn on lederhosen. From what I see it’s much more common to find them for males vs female ones. Pronounced “shawriwari”. It’s a heavy silver chain, status symbols since only the wealthy/nobility could hunt. I’ve seen some sample ones that had nice charms like crystals or coins along with hunting trophies. All the ones I’ve seen are silver, some accented by bronze or copper maybe even gold.</p><p><br /></p><p>Because none of the trinkets/luck charms are mass produced they are all in different degrees of finery. They get bequeathed in families and people morph them depending on what they felt was worthy to contribute. The ladies little Charivari are usually more demure but still pack a bunch of charms.</p><p><br /></p><p>My favorite charm is this maw which is currently going on Etsy to the tune of $350: [ATTACH=full]187200[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]187201[/ATTACH]Pretty fierce. I’m putting one together for myself so of course it’ll be filled with whatever I find that brings me luck and if I manage to find myself a nice antique piece I absolutely can’t live without...<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
