    I'm not sure about the pendants, but what I can see from the silver beads, it looks to me also like middle estern. The cage beads could be from Yemen? And the pumpkin shaped beads with bulky ends also look from Yemen to me. Hope I've been helpful!!!

    Hi everyone, the necklaces were created by a designer friend of mine, so the elements are of mixed origin. Thank you for the suggestions of origin..sarah.
