Adorable small Tuareg carnelian agate ring. You see these most often as hair rings, or as interesting pendants on necklaces, but sometimes they are worn as finger rings as well, especially if they are not too large and are, well, finger sized! This one is etched with some detailing on the metal setting and a couple of small granulated adornments grace the sides. US size 4. Authentic tribal Tuareg piece from Mali.
Tuareg jewelry is much sought after for it's clean lines and geometric style. These beautiful rings come in an infinite variety and can range from very large/tall to quite small. Worn in Mali, Mauritania and Niger in the hair, on headpieces or wraps or as on necklaces or on the fingers. The Tuareg are a nomadic people, most of whom live in the Saharan and Sahelian regions—southern Algeria, western Libya, eastern Mali, northern Niger, and northeastern Burkina Faso. They are believed to be descendants of the North African Berbers. In Tuareg culture, there is great appreciation of the arts, and they are craftsmen of fine silver jewelry, woodwork (delicately decorated spoons and ladles and carved camel saddles), and dyed and embroidered leatherwork.
