    I wish our necklaces had makers marks as they could be related! This is a marvellous piece too! The smaller rectangular boxes - are they boxes or medallions? The cord is twisted rather than braided, but it does have a loop and knot. It is fascinating that there is such a variety.

    Another stunning necklace.  I really love the way Omani chains are made, with the tiny fat links.
