New dangle necklace features vintage Kuchi pendants and coins strung on black shoelace cord. These necklaces use vintage components and buttons to create new jewelry. An updated version of the original black cord Kuchi necklaces with a bit of "extra". 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. The word Kuchi itself is derived from a Farsi word meaning migration, in relation to nomads or gypsies, and does not describe a particular group or people, but rather a state of being.
