''Farmakero'' Antique Ottoman Bracelet

Antique Ottoman Bracelet from the 19th century, called ''farmakero''

In the 19th century in Greece the silver craftsmen in order to manufacture 'inferior' jewelry they distorted silver with a metal alloy called ''agiari''. That was copper and brass. Therefore, in order to whiten the ''dirty'' and non-shiny effect of this mixture they used arsenic. So the jewelry that was made in this way are called ‘'farmakera'' which means poisonous.
