I feel like these are Algerian, possibly Oulad Nail, but would love input.

The overall pattern of dividing the surface in three squares is typical of the Aures mountains anklets; Chaouia berbers...BUT overlapping do exist and Oulad nail used to wear similar anklets as well if not the smae!

Rabah should be of a better help

I am no expert, and can't really help... but they also remind me of the cut-out anklets from Algeria.

However, they are very beautiful. Love their solidity and the engravings.
