You had a lot of Cossack and Caucus people leaving Russia in the 19th and 20th century. Some went through the Middle East, this was probably done in Syria you do find enamel on brass and silver from there. Not especially early but a nice piece

Thanks Ward, so it is more a regional things the fittings such as this one in brass, attributed to the Turkish areas, can anything else be learned from this style of dress in brass?
