      Looking at your title, it sounds like you have already identified the item.

      http://www.utsavpedia.com/cultural-connections/mythological-influences/taweez-religious-pendant/

      "A Taweez is a locket that is generally associated with Islam although one can also find ones that are associated with Hinduism too. It usually contains verses from the Quran or other prayers and symbols related to Islam inscribed on the metal portion of the Taweez. This metal or black cloth pendant is usually threaded through a thick black string. Many wear it around the neck while some also wear it around the arm."

      I have some information on this item. I have two taweez which are nearly identical inherited from my father. Can you tell me the origin of these items (ie where they were found?) Why do you think they are Mughal? I can somehow show you pics of mine, which are in tact and very very similar.
