View through Europeana Collections
The whole collection is largely bought in Adana and Aintab in northern Syria, some in Konia (new silver jewellery). Objects also from Urfa (Mesopotamia) and Smyrna. The small Asian jewellery shows just great uniformity in an Islamic or at least old Turkish area from the Balkan Peninsula to Kurdistan - the Persian border. (General Catalogue)
