Gorgeous vintage pendant from the Turkman peoples of Central Asia.  This particular pendant has a light gold wash, known as "fire gilding", original lovely carnelian stones, and silver dangles hanging from the bottom with little bells that tinkle.  Carnelian stones were believed to protect the wearer from illness and death and the stones on this piece appear original and in very good condition. 

Overall, this is a stunning piece of wearable art -- the fire gilding and the carnelian really make the piece shine with an inner light.  The silver "braiding" throughout the piece is exceptional as well, as are the linked chains that the tassels hang from.  It is in excellent condition and could be worn as is, displayed on a wall, or added to your own jewelry creations.       

This pendant measures a little more than 4 inches wide by 6.75 inches, not including the tassels, and about 10 inches including the tassels.  It weighs 209.2 grams.   

The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York has an excellent history of the Turkman peoples and the role of jewelry in the culture of these Central Asian nomads:

Although nominally Sunni Muslim, the Turkmen kept many of their pre-Islamic customs and beliefs, which were often embodied in the jewelry they made and wore. Turkmen silver jewelry carried deep symbolic meanings and often marked an individual’s passage from one stage of life to another. From a very early age, a woman started wearing jewelry whose shapes and materials were believed to ensure her ability to bear healthy children later in life. The amount of embellishments a girl wore increased as she approached marriageable age. Once she had had her first children, and her fertility had been established, the amount of jewelry she received and wore decreased. In addition, silver jewelry believed to ward off evil and illness was worn by men, women, and especially by children.

Jewelry was a significant financial investment, as it was handcrafted from precious materials. There were cases when, in times of dire need, a woman would part with her jewelry in order to help the survival of the tribe. Significant in size and weight, Turkmen jewelry objects were made of silver, decorated with semi-precious stones, and sometimes gilded for an added color effect and value.

The Met explains that "Pieces of carnelian, a bright red colored stone, are popular because they are believed to protect the wearers from illness and death."
