In the world of tribal jewelry, weight is a primary indicator of quality and value to serious collectors. ​Master-Level Filigree: The complex open-work design on the reverse of the pendant proves this was hand-constructed by a skilled artisan, likely in the Middle Eastern or Central Asian (Kuchi/Bedouin) tradition. ​Mixed Gemstone Value: The necklace utilizes a rich variety of genuine earth-mined stones—carnelian, quartz, and various agates—offering a sophisticated color palette that modern resin "fakes" cannot replicate. ​Complete Artisan Details: From the traditional hook-and-eye closure to the dangling fringe and bezel-set stations, every element of this necklace is designed to impress. ​SPECIFICS ​Weight: 5.4 oz (153g) ​Pendant Gemstones: 9 Grey-Blue Agate Cabochons ​Necklace Stones: Moss Agate, Carnelian, Milky Quartz, Bezel-Set Agate ​Metal: Unmarked Heavy Silver-Tone (High-quality Mixed Metal/Alpaca) ​Closure: Traditional Hook and Eye ​Style: Central Asian / Kuchi / Bedouin Tribal ​CONDITION ​Excellent Vintage Condition.
