This was given to me by a client in South Yemen in 1974, as a gift for helping him with a business matter. It has been in my office drawer for over 50 years, but recently I saw something on social media and decided to post pictures of my piece, the response was startling so I'd like to hear from an expert. I have given it the salt water and hot needle test and it has come up as real, also it was from a desert area so maybe it is amber from a desert

it is exactly 15oz in weight, has 33 beads and an amber tassle. It is 22" in circumference and the beads vary in colour a little, all are what I believe to be butterscotch colour, variations are some are clearer others more opaque
