  • I don't know about origins but it certainly is a wonderful "treasure" necklace, full of old and interesting things.
  • Hi, This is a Moroccan piece.

    The elements look to be pre 1950  the chains may be a more recent addition, as these are more usually on wool or silk at the back.

    Nice elements ..........

    Is is possible to see what the treading material is? this will help with dating a little.

     

    Warm wishes

  • all the eelments are antique bar the enameled discs and some agate beads.

     

    south west morocco at is greatest extension( southern anti atlas) would be my guess for the geographic origin but i suspect some bazar work here.

     

    anyway nice collection of old components

  • Morocco - interesting mixture of old and new!
