Sets like these are very popular among the kabyle diaspora abroad and as gifts.
1950 seems optimistic to me although it very much likely
Beautiful set Angelo. Could it be Israelien? from the mid 1950s.. Done by the Yemeni silversmiths who immigrated back to Israel. I myself received a set of this kind of work in 1958. It has the mark of 925 o n the back. Just my impression. Gr.Ingrid.
A beautiful set and very special to wear. It must have given someone great pleasure.

Dear Angelo; I have for the time being only a limited number of Kabyle items in my collection. Hence, I am not a specialist. All I can say, that these pieces look nice and are very appealing to me. With kind regards. Peter
Thanx Peter …..was listed for 50 cents per grams …and the picture is so clean ( you see what u get ,,,kinda thing ),,,so i decided to get it …maybe i'll give to my sister ...
Best
Angelo
I am sorry to tell you that this set cannot be older than '90s. If you need more information write me back.
