This is a very interesting necklace. If I were looking only at the chain and attached dangles, I would be sure it were Ottoman probably from the Levant region.
Dear Lynn; Many thanks for your message. It is definitely Ottoman. However, the Ottoman empire was reaching far south the Arabian peninsula. This is most probably why we can find such pieces in Yemen. With kind regards. Peter
