Gold Necklace with Medieval Coin
SOLD. SOON WE WILL HAVE A SIMILAR PIECE AVAILABLE.
This necklace, handmade in 18k gold, features a silver Almohad dirham dating from approximately 1160-1260 AD.
These coins, with their distinctive square shape and excellent silver alloy, circulated throughout the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa during the entire Middle Ages. As it was prohibited by Islam to depict human figures, these coins often feature religious text on one side and politically oriented text on the other.

Length: 45cm. It also has a ring to adjust it to 40cm. For other sizes, please consult us.
Coin measurements: 15x15 mm.
