About

Necklace with Wooden Protective Amulets

A characterful antique necklace composed of eight carved wooden amulets, each originally used to protect cattle from malevolent spirits in rural mountain communities. These talismanic forms—worn smooth from age and ritual use—are strung on a vibrant red rag yarn, a colour traditionally associated with protection and vitality. Displayed as an art object, it carries the soulful presence of pastoral life in the Swat Valley, where belief, craft, and daily survival intertwined.
