| ملاحظات | The traditional jewellery of the Syrian region, which incorporated much of Palestine, Jordan and Lebanon as well as Syria itself in the 19th century, shows influences from a wide range of sources, reflecting Syriaâs strong trading traditions and central location. The jewellery worn in towns, which is often Ottoman or western in style, is frequently very different from that worn by the nomadic Bedouin, whose characteristic silver jewellery is much better known today. This pendant was described as a âbrooch for fastening the chemiseâ when it was acquired by the Museum in 1873, and the local name was recorded as â showki â. It has a sharp double-ended hook on the back which would have been hooked into either side of the ownerâs shift to keep it closed at the front of her dress. It was bought for one shilling and sixpence at the International Exhibition, London, 1872. |

| Fiziksel açıklama | Silver-plated clasp consisting of a slightly curved rosette with five chains hanging from its lower edge. There is an empty setting in the centre of the clasp and a loop for suspension on its top. On the back there is a strip of wire across the centre ending in a sharp hook at each side. The five chains are made of loose loop-in-loop chain. Each has a disc pendant at the end and in the centre. |
