Kuchi Beggar Bowl Mini

The central element of the composition is a distinctive, semi-circular bowl made of patinated metal. The form evokes traditional amulets and bowls found in the jewelry of the nomadic Kuchi tribes. The surface bears traces of time, abrasions, and natural discoloration, which contribute to the authentic, unadorned character of the piece.

Small chains, topped with small, teardrop-shaped elements, hang from the sides of the bowl and from beneath its base. Additionally, flat, round plates are arranged along the chain, subtly moving with every movement. The necklace is alive – it gently resonates and responds to the body.

The chain is composed of irregular, handcrafted brass links. The overall design is lighter and more minimalist than elaborate operas with dense chains, yet retains the same symbolic nomadic aesthetic. It's a simple yet expressive design.

This piece will complement minimalist styles, linen fabrics, layered garments, and natural materials. It doesn't pretend to be luxury—it offers authenticity, history, and the original form of jewelry worn on the go.
