It’s beautiful and distinctive. I think if you could figure out where the stones came from, that would be a start. Also, knowing the karat would help. European and Latin American gold is normally 18 K, US gold is usually 14K, and then there are the odd ones: 9 karat gold on Malta, for example.
This is a Greek cross (arms the same size) so it could also be from a Byzantine Christian tradition, probably Catholic rather than Orthodox. Lebanese perhaps?
If the diamonds are modern Tolkowsky-style brilliants instead of old European cuts that would definitely date it to the mid-20th century or later. The piece might also have hallmarks that could help with identification.
Nice dark yellow, the design almost looks celtic.
No granulation so it may be modern.
Nice find, I’d go back .
How the stones are cut would probably tell a lot,
the cross looks like amethyst.
