It's hard to tell, but does it say 950? If so, it is possibly gold plate over silver (.950).
.

This is likely Mid-Eastern filigree with a gold wash or plating, which is termed vermeil. 950 is the silver content, out of 1000 parts, so better than sterling. Much of the Eastern filigree is gilded to give a more lavish appearance.
