Product Description

RIHANA JEWELRY
19th - 20th Century Tunisia

Inspired by the collections of the Israel Museum, Jerusalem


The rihana necklace was a major component in the jewelry of the Jewish bride from Djerba, Tunisia, adorning her chest together with another four or five necklaces. In the past it was made by a sophisticated method, apparently brought to Tunisia by Moorish craftsmen: its links were sliced and then joined together by hammering, without any soldering. Similar links also hung from the bride’s earrings and temple ornaments, and they became a characteristic feature of Tunisian silversmithing.


Materials: brass with gold finish
Gift Box Included.



Made in the U.S.A.
