RARE FIND ! Antique Tribal Sterling Silver & Ancient Green Glass Talisman Brooch / Pendant.

A striking and chunky statement brooch handcrafted in solid silver, showcasing intricate filigree and granulation work — ancient techniques deeply rooted in the jewellery traditions of the Middle East and North Africa.

Built in a bold, architectural panel form, the brooch is adorned with:
Twisted silver wire borders.
Dozens of hand-applied silver granules.
Layered geometric detailing.

Every element is individually placed, giving it that unmistakable tribal / ethnographic soul — raw, powerful, and completely unique.

These styles are closely associated with Berber and Islamic-world craftsmanship, where jewellery served not only as adornment, but as protection, status, and spiritual symbolism.
