[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1975763, member: 2844"]Gorgeous, Barn. It is a classic Qyamar, a woman's belt, probably Armenian. It dates from the Ottoman period. Part of Armenia is Turkish, and Armenian silversmiths were famed throughout the Ottoman empire. I'll see if I can find the tughra for the period, but the devil is in the detail with those Ottoman tughras, and this one doesn't have much detail.:([/QUOTE]
