Necklace with Jet and Coral Tassel

I'd like to see the whole necklace before confirming its origin, as it looks middle-eastern to me -the pendants appear to be jet, each carved with a circle-dot pattern more likely found in jewellery from Afghanistan!

I just noticed you have added an image of the whole necklace and I see these tassells dangle from a really big smooth silver-coloured metal bead with extended hollow "stems" at either end which are typical of Afghanistan or "Turkoman" assemblages. Sometimes they also incorporate old white shell pieces.

Yes it is, and I listed it as Turkoman/Afghanistan due to the Center bead. I have two of them and they are veery similar.
