    Thought I may have some chaching $$ when I first saw these. Not gold unfortunately :(. Nice hand made things though to my eye. Any thoughts on who/where/when, or anything? I’d say just vintage 70s-90s random artisan at a bench but maybe someone will see something I don’t. Pretty big at over 1 1/2” long. 4353D377-9E86-4556-8017-89372E811186.jpeg CB3EC456-47D9-4A0F-9295-0DC36598DEBB.jpeg 3EEAB591-493A-48FC-A07E-5317E83F037E.jpeg

    Think you've got it right: artisan, 80s - 90s. I really like them.

    They look like copies of archaeological finds - Von Schlieman hoard, Etruscan, or something like that.

    Ditto.
    I have a pair as well. I hardly wear them because the wires tend to bend when I put them in, so I'm scared they'll break.

    That was my first thought. I mean I didn’t have a thought as to where but an ancient type design.

    If they're traditional and from Mali, it probably is an ancient design. Or based on one anyway.
