The mystery...solved

A trip to the Brooklyn Museum solved the mystery. On a sunk relief depicting Queen Nefru of Egypt's 11th Dynasty (circa 2134 to 1991 BC) having her hair done by her hair dresser, Henut,, we see a pin very similar to mine being used. This pin has the ribbing and the stylized pomegranates, too.
