North African silver pendant necklace with beads and pendants.

An unusual piece! Do you know the age and region?

I purchased it from a seller that thought it was Berber, I have been looking in my books to find something similar but failed so any help would be nice.

Doesn't look Moroccan...I would guess at possible Yemeni?

Also looks to have loops all the way around, I think this is something else made into a necklace.

The pendant looks like an Ottoman Turkey headpiece

I think Johanne is right in mentionning a headpiece from the ottoman empire

Obviously reused as a pendant..the big couloured beads were also very widespread in middle eastern ottoman jewelry
