[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 2202496, member: 2844"]There are local differences in the chickpea style, but as you can see the decorations all have a definite dome shape. This is one of my Ottoman chickpea bangles, probably from Bulgaria: [ATTACH=full]254240[/ATTACH] And my three Yemeni chickpea bracelets. The one on the right has dents in several of the 'chickpeas', those were knocked in deliberately every time a woman had a child. The other two have decorations on the chickpeas.
