as i notice relatively recent fastener pieces at the ends its most likely the beads which appear ancient were gathered and then put together in a collar-like design layout.
it seems to have been done quite a lot when Egyptian treasures first became popular, around the 1920s.
the long beads appear to be on wires or eye pins with a loop at either end that allows this arrangement. Does the wire look old?
Surviving ancient textiles beadwork and strands would have been on linen.

those earrings are an interesting addition!

When I visit it again I'll get closer pics of the hardware.

Dear Lindabd,
These are not earrings. They are hair decorations, most probably from a wig.
You see, most upper class Egyptian's had wigs because of lice.
All the best,
Yankee
P.S these are jasper not carnelian.

Thank you so much! Hair decorations!
I told my friend that I thought they were jasper too. I'll send your response along to her.
Do you think that the faience beads are old?
Cheers!
