Sarah said this is a Marrakech citadel head piece from around 1925. Please Sarah post photo here if you can, it's so informative! What does a "citadel" head piece mean? And I was trying to see from the photo, but it's so small, how the pendant was attached?

Citadel pieces originate in cities

This one is Marrakshi or maybe Essaourian

EEk. I deleted your comment by mistake Sarah... please tell about the Roses again! Also, what were the occasions these were worn? Are they dowry pieces? The work is very fine and elaborate.

"yours features roses of Andalucia in the engraved designs, so likely Essaourian x"
