You may be right about this being Dagastani craftsmanship as they are well known for this type of work. Do you think the decorative motif in both the repoussee silver and gold inlaid ivory is that of a rose? Can remember reading in "Sabres of Paradise' that yellow roses were brought to the head Shamans garden every morning.
