Value Breakdown by Material
Because many of these ethnic woven pieces are unmarked, the final pricing depends heavily on a metal test:
Sterling or High-Grade Silver (.925 or .800): If hallmarked or tested as solid silver, identical vintage pieces regularly sell between $75 and $220 on marketplaces like eBay and Etsy.
Silver-Plated or Low-Grade Alloy (e.g., Tibetan/Miao Silver): If the piece is unmarked base metal or a silver-plated alloy, the value ranges from $20 to $35
