    It looks like a wall hanging but I cannot confirm. Or is it worn. I would like to know which area this comes from and is there a special purpose for it. It is a real beauty the red stones have a very nice contrast.

      Very nice! looks like a cerimonial (maibe marriage) Necklace, i would say the stones are Ambar, and its made of several metals: Silver, Copper, or some mixed alloy, the craft and design look North African, i would wild guess Berber Saharian.

      The center tubular element looks like it has a top. Is it removeable? If so, could hold a Muslim prayer. Another location could be the tribal peoples of Pakistan, India, etc.
