A splendid necklace made of 7 Niger crosses, or Southern crosses. The crosses are finely chiseled by an experienced craftsman.

Materials: sterling silver and onyx beads
Size: 42 cm - cross 3 cm x 2,5 cm - 23 gr
Origin: Tuareg craftsmen from Agadez, Niger

 The Tuareg call these jewelry « teneghelt » which alludes to the production process with lost wax in an earthen mold.
The interpretations of this jewelry are varied. It could represent the four cardinal points or the « Southern Cross » constellation, the cross on the camel’s saddles or a love message ; love is pronounced T(o)R(a) in Tamacheck, illustrated by the symbols « O » and « + ».
Maybe it could even be representing all these symbols at once…!
