Very fine Labba with incredible detail and granulation, Jewish workmanship. Yemen 19th c hall marks.

A good example!

This was even better in person. This might have been the one I used in my catalogue in Paris. I had several at that time that were really fantastic. This is another area that was recently unleashed and now dried up , so many fantastic items came from there.
