It is an authentic, signed at the back tuareg piece.
Tuareg women have a superstitious fear of gold and will not wear it. Silver has thus taken its place in the tuareg traditions which is regarded as a noble metal, pure and lucky. The silver along with the ornaments gives protection in life. Every jewel is a message and contains sometimes ancient forgotten symbols. The geometric patterns and designs are integrated into the pieces in a way that results in jewellery that speaks universally from the particular, and has a uniquely aesthetic appeal. The circlular motifs and the crosses within the piece combine male and female symbols in union, to create a concrete object of great beauty. Also the circular pendants or motifs are known as Issaran and represent the full moon and its properties, worn during lunar celebrations and daily for decoration and protection.
