Vintage Silver Ethiopian Tribal Hair Ornament or Comb - Amhara People

Description

I purchased this lovely Ethiopian Hair Ornament in the 1970's or 1980's when I was wearing my hair very long and tied up.  I've been wearing it short for many years, and am finally ready to let go of my Hair Comb collection, or some of it.
This piece is very similar Hair Pin is in the permanent collection of the American Museum of Natural History, in it's Anthropology Department.  The link is https://anthro.amnh.org/anthropology/databases/common/image_dup.cfm? catno=90%2E2%2F%205329&curr_page=&from_anthro=no
It features detailed beaded decoration which is highlighted by the patina, or tarnish.  It is in excellent vintage condition.  I don't know the makeup of the metals used, but when I polished the back it acted like silver.
It weighs 13 grams or .46 oz
It is 4 1/16th " x 1" x 3/8"
