    You must have bought all the wonderful pieces left in Bulgaria!!!  ha, ha, good for you!  It has somehow a Turkish design to it.

    Mmm, it comes from about as far from Turkey as there is in Bulgaria. It`s from the far NE almost on the Serbian and Romanian borders. The type of style was far-reaching in all the surrounding countries.

    I did not know that Bulgaria had so much ethnic jewellery! Nice and interesting!
