Possibly older pieces but newly put together. I'd have to see them in person to decide.
lol.thax u guys a lot~and i wanna knw this is old one or new made?
On the other hand, this could be Afghan from the Hazara, they also use a lot of bird motifs and very often in niello.
Here is the same motif on an Uzbek headdres.
This is interesting. I have an Uzbek headdress and this bird motif was part of the embellishment. So, I would say Uzbekistan.
I'd say Afghanistan, but the bird motif like these are also found in Uzbek work. It looks as though it is a newer piece.
