الوصف

A magnificent handcrafted tribal silver necklace from the Arabian Peninsula region (likely Yemen or southern Hijaz), dating from the early to mid-20th century. This statement piece features intricate filigree silverwork, suspended amuletic pendants shaped like doves or protective figures, and rows of silver coins and diamond-shaped plates symbolizing wealth and fertility. The central filigree medallion is set with a deep red carnelian and a smaller green glass or stone accent, traditional materials believed to offer protection and good fortune. Such necklaces were worn by Bedouin or Yemeni women during weddings and special occasions, both as jewelry and as a safeguard charm. Every detail—from the chased silver discs to the tiered chainwork—reflects skilled local craftsmanship and cultural symbolism from an era when silver jewelry served as both art and portable wealth.
