DETAILS
Midyat Nurtaş Gümüş makes this women's necklace by hand in Midyat, the silver town of south-eastern Turkey. It is telkâri — filigree in which fine silver wire is coiled and soldered into openwork. The ornament is drawn from the nazar, the blue eye worn across Anatolia as a guard against ill fortune. See the workshop's own pages for specifications and availability; the bench answers there.
