Hi Sad,
I am travelling at the moment, I shall contact you upon my return with more details.
Warmest wishes
Sarah
after scrutunizing well the picture, i came to the conclusion that this have been for sure the central part of an articulate crown
definetely very early
Thank you Ayis, I have similar information regarding the piece Valencia seems likely.
Warm wishes
Sarah
Wow Linda, this is a wonderful diadem.
Indeed the similarities are more than superficial and andalucian techniques and features are mixing well with asian and eastern ones (the little hanging balls, the crescent, the double arc-like shaped diadem, the peacok tail shape of the toppings)
Typically ottoman empire (crescent and coral beads)
Is it part of a public or private collection? have it been published before?
cheers
Hi this piece is something for sale but I don't own it. Some one that has a regular jewelry business has it in the inventory and doesn't really know what it is or where it's from particularly They sell estate 19th c and art deco jewelry. It is probably still available as they don't do much business with non wearible and ethnic jewelry.
