Small cuff bracelets from the Kashmiri region of Pakistan. Matched pair in an easy to wear pin and hinge design that allows for quick on/off use. Pins are connected by chains so can’t become lost and have small jingling bells attached. Both pins fit securely. Chased design with cut outs in the metal. These can be lined with fabric for comfort and might look nice with a red (or other bright color) fabric lining showing through the openwork design.
The story of Kuchi jewelry, like all tribal jewelry, is rich with influences from many cultures. These beautiful pieces with colorful glass jewels and jingling bells originally came from the nomadic Pashtoon tribes that wandered the border areas of Afghanistan and Pakistan, along ancient routes between the seasons, moving down from the mountains in the winter and back to higher elevations in the summer. The word Kuchi itself is derived from a Farsi word meaning migration, in relation to nomads, and does not describe a particular group or people, but rather a state of being.
