Silver Tuareg Mosque Ring, Mali
An unusual high-grade silver Tuareg ring made in recent years in Mali. The narrow extended part of the ring is said to be modelled on the tall architecturally stylish minarets of Mali. It features geometric tribal motifs. The story goes that the narrow extension doubles up as a means to apply women’s Kohl powdered eyeliner when out and about. Truth or fiction? Who knows?! A stylish ring anyway.
