  • This is a wonderful piece - thank you so much for sharing! The cord is a slightly different weave to mine...I'll need to do more research!

  • Dear Peter, A very lovely focal piece. "Very modernist". Regards, betty

  • Lovely piece, I like that more robust style of Oman.  You explained it to Charlotte, just as I felt it,even though I have never seen one in reality.  Maybe one day.  Of course, the old Yemeni pieces are beautiful and refined.  Maybe also I am a sticker for high quality silver, I love the glow of silver. Thank you Peter for wording it so well. Gr. Ingrid.

  • Another beautiful piece. The inclusion of the little talismans adds beauty.
