Description
These vintage tassels are another stellar example of classic Kuchi craftsmanship. Coming from the nomadic Pashtun artisans of the Afghanistan and Balochistan regions, these tassels were once part of traditional clothing and accessories. Many are salvaged from garments that have become thread bare and are no longer wearable. Finding new use for these beautiful beaded tribal tassels is a great way to up-cycle and reuse items, keeping them out of landfills. Good for you and good for the environment!
