[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9505433, member: 2844"]Sounds wonderful, and it is in keeping with tradition. Strictly speaking they should be a similar style, from the same region, but hey, it is yours, so it's good. That is a gorgeous hirz btw, with those Hamsas. If you can't get the right coral, you could also use coral coloured glass. They often used coral glass, tile beads, for instance. They could be something like .500 silver. Yemenis also combined several finenesses at times, and have been known to mix and match silver and other metals.[/QUOTE]
