Lovely "flower" bracelet with interesting wrapping technique. Congratulations, Peter!
I believe they can also be found in Yemen and Ethiopia, usually small sizes... I once had one from Ethiopia but it was only about 4.5cm diameter. Since I love to wear what I collect I found it a new owner.
I also like your photo very much. Best regards, Betty
By the way, a dealer in Istanbul showed me how to take photos like that...
Betty, Are these the type you saw from Ethiopia? I have and know only the more simple smooth ones, like the Sudanese or Egyptian ones. From the Bilen people. Are you referring to the smooth ones? Gr. Inrid.
Yes, Ingrid, I had one that was sourced in Ethiopia. Here's the link; the flowers were less prominent than on Peter's bracelet:

Maybe it came over the Red Sea... the dealer I bought it from had three of them. I bought only one and eventually sold it again as it was way too small to wear.
I cannot wait to see your other finds, Peter!
Now I am curious about the picture with reflection. Did you use the top/screen of a laptop or tablet?
