<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 3602533, member: 2844&quot;]I see you found it, yes, they are traditional southern African elephant hair bangles. They are still being made, as a symbol of strength, and other good things. The traditional way of making them is with two knot slides, or braided. Yours are a more Western style.</p><p>The hair is taken from the tail, in case you&#039;re wondering.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Yours are very nice, because they are made with gold. It would be pretty hard to find proof that they are Victorian though. Friends of mine brought similar bangles back from southern Africa, and they were brand new when they bought them.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is no such thing. The Grand Tour was through Continental Europe, and sometimes the Middle East as well. The Raj was in British India.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
