Omani origin (???) silver over brass, dating to late 1700's to early 1800's.

I have never seen one this heavy and ornate, and it's bigger than it appears in the pictures, even with the coins as reference. (By the way, there is some easily-removable wax on the bracelet as it was at some time used as a candle holder.)

Measurements:

Diameter = 6.0 inches
Height = 3.5 inches

This is a fantastic opportunity to own a very rare historical piece, possibly even a museum piece with a very unique story to tell (albeit a very dark one).
