Janet Seward, who has led trips for the Collectors Council for 16 years, will speak
about jewelry traditions in Morocco with an emphasis on traditional tribal silver. She will show slides of
jewelry and also photos of street scenes with women wearing jewelry from her most recent trip there in 2009.
Seward will bring her personal collection of Moroccan jewelry and some of Jackie Little's collection for
the "tableshow" including pieces such as necklaces, rings, bracelets and a diadem. The pieces are made of
silver and include components such as amber, coral, glass and old coins.

Traditions and Customs:
Moroccan Mint Tea
10 sprigs fresh mint, plus extra for garnish
3 tsp green tea
3 tbsp sugar (or more to taste)
4 c. water
Boil the water and pour a small amount in the teapot.
Add the mint, green tea and sugar to the teapot, then add the rest of the hot water. Let brew for three minutes.
Fill a glass with tea, then pour it back in the pot. Repeat. This helps to dissolve and distribute the sugar.
To serve, pour the tea into skinny glasses or tea cups, holding the teapot at a high distance above the glasses to create a little foam on the top of the tea.
