    Quite interesting to see, Linda. It would be good and proper to own along with the main headpiece, but personally I feel more moved by that. Still, a good piece. And good info!

    This is a very archaic looking piece from an earlier time seems like from the style of work on it meaning derived from some type of earlier ornament.

    Yes, I agree with your sense of it.
