A nice pair of Kuchi old silver earrings from Afghanistan. Their design makes them very light and the cabochons of stone and little coral beads make them even more attractive. They remind to some extent of the more elaborated designs that can be found in the Republic of Kyrguizistan. The Kuchi people, from the Persian -koch- meaning migration, are Afghan pashtoons nomads divided in a number of tribes that inhabit areas of Afghanistan and, to a lesser extent, Pakistan.
