Vintage Bavarian (German) Charivari with 6 charms. Turned into a bracelet.
A Charivari is a decorative, multi-component chain worn on men's Lederhosen in Bavaria and other Alpine regions. The Charivari sported trophies like antlers, hoof tips and animal teeth, claws and quartz crystals from hunts. It was originally an indicator of wealth and social standing, with the finest charivaris displaying valuable gems. Charivari often served as a lucky charm for a successful hunt and sometimes as a talisman bestowing luck on an entire family.
Metal-the chain and findings are approx. 800-830 silver, the clasp is sterling silver.
The trophies include a boar topped claw, 2 1/4" length, wild boar teeth, bird claw, amethyst crystal, boar head tassel and silver tassel. 7 1/4" length.
