790 Multan Silver Enamel Blue Medallion Pendant - SOLD

Sold to a discerning Antique Art-Lover

***

Very early example of silver jewelry from Multan region / Pakistan strung on Rudraksh beads.

Although all enamelled pieces from Multan are rare, most are rectangular and ones in this shape are impossible to find.

Very well done blue and green enamel work.

The silver plate is thick - one more unusual feature.

The bells all have a cheerful tinkle but the remarkable ones are the 5 hanging at the centre. The shape is extremely unusual and rare and is one of the important aspects of this piece.

Very Rare

Age unknown but estimated to be 50-60 years old

The burnt-orange of the Rudraksh beads offersa superb contrast.
