[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1541723, member: 2844"]Thanks, ezee, that looks much better. Yes, the style is Moroccan Berber, and they really are pretty, but there is something strange about them. Normally these are hammered from a sheet of metal. That means the round decoration should have an indentation at the back. And the loops on the coins are a bit too perfect and similar to my liking. I think they are a modern take on traditional earrings, manufactured in a non-traditional way.[/QUOTE]
