Hello dear members,
I got this one, I really like the niello work on these items. Is it too written Caucasus on it ? Kind regards |

Great looking buckles (and bracelet) guys. I've always found these buckles interesting. Here is one of mine. I believe it's Caucasian. It's in good, serviceable condition, but does show regular usage. The only distraction is a pierced hole in the center cone. It just so happens that the tip of a kindjal blade fits in the hole perfectly. Makes me think the hole came about from a combat situation.

I've seen these buckles all throughout Dagestan, Georgia, and just yesterday in a shop in Armenia

as I think it to be a very interesting (sideline) topic, specially the interaction in that region : similarities and differences. |

most of the above bracelets originate from the Caucasus,
just got a new one to my collection which looks different ... root cause: the presence of a tughra which reminds me of the Ottoman tughra the question is; did I become a victim of a kind of fake/ an immitation or if not, where does this one comes from? Perhaps members with knowledge of the Caucasus region can advice...? Any other forum members are also most welcome to share your thoughts thank you! |
