یادداشتها
Bracelets were part of traditional costume in most Islamic cultures, and were always originally worn in matching pairs. These were described as âModern Egyptianâ when they were acquired by the Museum in 1904, but they are not a typical pattern. Although copper bracelets of this general shape are more common further south, the floral design is not characteristic of African traditional jewellery. They may represent a design worn in Egypt or Syria in the 19th century which is now extinct in the region.
