Rare Coral Yemenite Vintage Yemeni Antique Necklace Yemen Silver Pendant Jewelry

Description: Yemenite silversmithing refers to the work of Jewish silversmiths from Yemen. They were highly acclaimed craftsmen who dominated craft production in precious metals in the southern Arabian peninsula from the 18th through the mid-20th century, a period and region during which Muslims did not engage in this work. These Yemenite silversmiths were noted for their use of fine granulation and filigree, producing such ornaments as women's bracelets, necklaces, finials, etc. (Ref: Wikipedia) Between June 1949 and September 1950, almost the entire Jewish community in Yemen, including nearly every silversmith in the country, immigrated to Israel in an airborne mass migration known as Operation Magic Carpet. Muslims appear to have entered silversmithing in the Yemen in the mid-1900s as the Jews departed for Israel. (Ref: Wikipedia). Yemeni silver jewelry was traditionally given to a newly wed bride as an emergency fund asset from her family, which she would cherish and care for her entire life or otherwise sell them in case of dire need of money. But when the value of the silver declined in med to late 1900s, Yemeni diverted more toward gold jewelry than the traditional Yemenite jewelry, which brought the declined of the craftsman of this kind of jewelry. Currently almost all the pieces available are old pieces, kept by jewelry collectors. The silver pendants, beads and ornaments used in this Yemeni necklace are made of old 900 coin silver, while the coral beads used are genuine and old coral. The chain used is also 900 silver.
