Amazigh Silver Agadez Leather cord ⴾⴻⵢⵏⴰⵏ ⵏ ⴰⴳⴰⴷⴻⵣ Necklace.

The Agadez shield or Tumast ⴾⴻⵢⵏⴰⵏ ⵏ ⴰⴳⴰⴷⴻⵣ in Tamazight is the most popular category of Saharan Amazigh jewelry made especially by the Tuareg people. Only a few of this jewelry really looks like a cross. For most of them it’s a pendant with different silhouette, related either to a cross (tanaghilt) or to a shield (talhakim). 

Pendant is strung on a black leather cord with lobster claw clasp. For both women and men.

Material: Silver and leather cord.

Origin: Tiznit. Morocco

Tiznit, a small town in southern Morocco, is the center of silver craftsmanship. It is, in reality, the silver jewelry capital of Morocco. Tiznit is a historic town established in 1881. It is located between the Atlantic coast and the Atlas Mountains. The lovely town is noted for its use of silver and is viewed as the home of Amazigh jewelry making techniques.
