Charles and everybody,
I sincerely apologize to each and every member of the gender Camelus, both Dromedaries and Bactrians, for my ethnophobic attitude. My only explanation that one of their representatives almost ( repeat: almost !) bit my wifeÂ’s shoulder on our honeymoon trip to the Red Sea.
I tried to convince her that the creature just gave her a kiss, as a congratulation on her marriage, but to no avail. I had to take sides and, as all of you of male persuasion understand, took my wife’s side for the rest of my life. Threat of immediate divorce overcame my sincere love for those adorable, highly intelligent and proud creatures.

But, on a more serious note, what I have just paid attention to, your example lacks the Omani silver knot, which makes me suspect it is a high-class purely Baluch example, without Omani influence.
