I have no idea by the way just throwing things out but I think it is to fragile for equine work or constraint.


Nice item though.
Thank you Ken, interesting suggestion. I just received a mail from a friend who showed it to an antique dealer, he says that it could be a Jewish chain worn by a Rabbi or from Eastern Christians, he seems to be sure that it is a religious necklace.
