What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This is a lovely bracelet made by a jewish silversmith who combined different types of wire work and granulation. Similar designs can be found all over north africa, but this particular design would be typical for the Bedouin Hadhrami in the Hadhramaut region of Yemen. The typical material would be high quality silver made from austrian Maria Theresia Taler coins which were / are a common currency in this area (called "Abu Kush"). Because of the current serious drought and wars in this area lots of jewelry is sold and can be found all over the world now.
The dark spots on the bracelet would suggest that this is a silver bracelet, but if it is indeed gold the upper estimate would approximately be the current (high) gold value.
