Great work! The Tuareg live in those areas of the Sahara you mentioned, and have even a further reach in the desert. And yes they are and have been great silversmiths.

When I was in Morocco I brought back 2 Tuareg silver chased pendants. I was lucky to get them. Most Tuareg jewelry is sold to dealers in the high end market.
