This word appears in the King James Bible (Numbers, I think, in the description
of the Ephod), with apparently the same meaning; so how's that for a source?

That's what the creator (Steve Millingham) of the jewelry replicas calls
"dress jewels (ouches) ". I am not sure why he calls them that, as in I
haven't seen a source for the name other than at his site.

First jewelry pic you come across. It's what I want for the jewelry I am
looking to get.
Steve Millingham got the word from my customer who got it from me, who got
it from Annie the Pedlar who did the research for my Elizabeth figure. I
imagine she has sources for it, as she did a great deal of research before
making the jewellery for me.

Very cool. A new, accurate, but obsolete, word.
