    Dear Peter, for sure hug. Must give you a bend neck.But as it was most probably a part of the dowry,

     it was something solid to fall back on in case of necessity. Gr. Ingrid.

    This is very interesting, Peter. I haven't seen such a profusion of pendants like this suspended from a Yemeni necklace before. Angelo may well be right about its origin. Certainly I have seen those flat-topped beads in necklaces from that area. It will sparkle when it moves in the sunlight.

    For sure a very unusual and splendid piece, Peter. It must have looked stunning when worn. Kind regards, Betty.
