I was told that this is a Tumar necklace. I bought 4 of them to sell, but have decided to keep this one as I think it is so beautiful, but I don't know much about the origin etc. Can anyone give me more information?

    Are the stones carnelian or glass, seems to be glass to me.. hard to see. I still think the way it's drawn and technically put together edges are very square and sharp seems to be the age i quoted before. It is a nice example of this type of piece however the 19th c ones are finished a bit differently to this.
