Such a puzzle! Looks Balinese/India to me, that’s a BOAT pendant, the stones look real, I’m thinking turquoise & Coral in necklace & Garnet/Turquoise in earrings. Very old style C-Clasp. Has anyone ever seen anything similar? Stamped Sterling, that design is on backs of all pieces. TYIA

Is it stamped sterling or .925? Also, have you checked the "stones" against your teeth? I'm betting the majority of the colored pieces are glass, by their lack of matrix and inclusions. The coral and turquoise, specifically, the garnets look right.
I also agree that the pendant must be a boat.
I'd guess India also, but I don't have any further information other than it's a demi-parure, rather than a full one.
Best of luck!

Stamped only “sterling” thanks for the input, I bet you’re correct about the cabs being glass 👍
