Rectangular pectoral plate Turkmenistan 04.01.1455

I was unable to find any reference for this type of pectoral? plate in all my literature on Turkmen jewellery. The only rectangular plate I could see were those used as headgear, but this one seems somewhat rigid to be bent around the forehead, the collar also does not speak for such use.
