A genuine and old Antique Tuareg Robe Weight known as Assrou n Swoul (Assrou n' Swoul), generally translated as " the key which is thrown over the shoulder ". The Assrou Swoul is a highly prized and valued piece among the collectors of Berber antiques and jewellery. Items of this kind and quality are extremely rare. Tuareg blacksmiths, known as Inadan in Tamazight ('Berber language'), are well known for their fine metal-work and are among the best in the Sahara. This elaborate key-like pendant is often worn by wealthier women as a counterweight to keep their head-cloths or robes from being blown away by the Sahara's winds. A wonderful addition to your collection. Each weight is one of a kind.
