If you follow fashion, you *know* bracelets are being worn on both arms, often several at a time, so we all need more of them now! Here's a really unusual, conversation-piece bangle finely detailed with two stylized lions in sphinxlike pose, their manes resembling a Pharoah's head-dress. It's also decorated on the sides and infinitely adjustable to fit any wrist (or you could even wear it farther up your arm). The metal is quite sturdy and has a *real gold* look, though I assume it's a brass alloy (possibly gilded). Probable dating is mid-20th century. Origin is either Egypt or nearby East Africa.

Here's a head-turning necklace for you! Whenever I wear it, compliments flow and everyone mistakes it for genuine amber.
Adding to the look of sheer opulence, 9 very ornate spacer beads feature among the rugged faux-amber slices. The beads certainly contain some silver, since they tarnish. I believe this jewel is of Middle Eastern origin, dating from the early part of the 20th century. The chain is like nothing I've ever seen before, sort of in the "paperclip" style but not quite. Obviously it's hand-made.
