Necklace is gilt silver with old coral from Hadramaut Valley. Old belt with gilded plaques are probably fabricated from base metal...individual plaques are hand sewn onto a cotton backing.

beautiful items both of them, love the quality of the corral beads,the workmanship on the worked beads with the interesting center piece and the belt looks very wearable I think due to its being linked. Appreciate its craftmanship.
