<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 2002969, member: 2844&quot;]Very nice, Barn. Both are Yemeni, well done on the research.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> They look too old to be Yemenite, which would be made by Yemeni Jews in Israel. I think these were made in &#039;the old country&#039;, Yemen itself. Probably early 20th century.</p><p>Many Yemeni silversmiths were Jewish, so that could be where the confusion is. They made jewellery for all Yemeni confessions and communities though.</p><p><br /></p><p>When it comes to Yemeni jewellery, my favourite is &#039;Silver Treasures from the Land of Sheba&#039;, by Marjorie Ransom, an excellent book.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
