Oh, LOVE these Edith!
Thanks, these were the last thing I purchased in Yemen before I was forced to leave the country. I love them too,
Very nice pieces ,, never saw this style
beautiful detail photos, thanks a lot! Very nice!
Beautiful! Very special types. When did you stay in Yemen? I ask because not many nice items do come out now.
I left about 4 years ago. It was a difficult place to be in some ways, but it was also an interesting and wonderful time for us. The dealer I purchase from has been complaining lately about certain types of items disappearing. I think with all the recent problems there it is probably affecting the availability of jewelry.
So you lived there till quite recent time. From what we read in the papers it must be a bit harsh and difficult to live in Yemen. But wonderful to get to know the culture and collect jewelry and other collectables (when you are interested in it that is) . You have got nice items!
I can not find much any more here in europe.
