Middle Eastern Silver Filigree Pin
This is a richly ornate domed filigree pin from the Middle East. Designs of this kind are found in
Turkish, Persian and also Israeli jewelry. Six tiny domes of curled filigree silver encircle a larger central dome.
This is a lovely brooch set on a flat back. The tip of the pin protrudes which is a characteristic of Persian pins.
There is a marking on the back of the pin, however, I have not found a matching identification for this piece. The letters
do look Arabic which is in keeping with the style. Measures 1 3/8" in diameter.
