Set of three antique Central Timorese Tetum Earrings. These are genuine, antique earrings from Timor, also found in some other islands of Nusa Tengarra, or Eastern Indonesia. They are thought to protect the wearer. The overall weight is 18gms, and the silver is of very high quality and shows the natural patina acquired from many years of use. They could be converted for use as pendants, if requested by any prospective purchaser. Genuine items from this region are quite rare.
