Dear Peter, what a gorgeous set of belt and temporal ornaments. I have seen these as part of a richly adorned costume from Bani Sa'ad people of Taif.

Love these!
Love it!!
Love this set. The domes on the beaded belt does look so much like the breast telsums of Ethiopia.
Which do have three loops on the back through which glass beads are fixed in order to make it a head band. GR. Ingrid.
Beautiful !
