[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 8099484, member: 2844"]It is a Bedouin face veil. There are different regional styles, and I think I've seen similar ones from Palestine/Israel. This is a beautiful example, with what looks like silver and gold thread embroidery. A rich lady. Do the dangles on the sides open? I wonder if they are perfume and kohl containers. And do you know where the coins are from? They could be Turkish. A Turkish stool, my parents had the same model. Looks like some ..... used it as a plant stand.:arghh::banghead: Even if you get the verdigris off, it is likely to leave a stain.:( The jambiya needs a polish, if you can get it out of the frame. It is silver.[/QUOTE]
