This is a silver bead attached to a bracelet. Looks somewhat middle east ? Tests 800 silver. Obtained in UK. Any help with id appreciated.

It looks like the style of bead made in the Indo-China (Siam - Indoneasia area of South-east Asia). I know many are still exported from there these days and are based on older forms typical to the decorative styles of these countries.
