[QUOTE="Curioser, post: 4390348, member: 13823"]or a nearby country/region? This necklace tests as sterling or a bit higher on all the pieces. The chain is a woven herringbone type, maybe rattail? The beads look hand-formed. The pendant has lots of tiny balls with ring tops strung on the crescent of wire around the center ornament. Three chains with three balls each hang below. There are no marks, the clasp is a two-ended hook and the length is 13 1/2". I can wear it snug at my neck and it seems too long to be an anklet so I am assuming it's a necklace. I tried Kuchi in a search term and found similar things but I realize those people may not be correct and if I knew another term I may find plenty of matches for that, too! I appreciate your help![ATTACH=full]369641[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]369642[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
