    Hi Ann, sorry I was under the impression you also were selling items, too bad!!

    Sorry to confuse Marie-Ange, I certainly am selling. This piece is very large, 10 x 10 x 3cm with a fine snake chain measuring 65cm. It weighs 298gram and has a high silver content. My export price ex tax is AUD 1,350. (AUD1 = Euro .75 today) Silver is becoming so expensive now and old pieces like this are much more difficult to find. 

    I love the way you have bound the cloth on the Yemeni fish necklace. I have one of those. I'll upload a picture. ann
