    #3 for unakite. Probably made in China. A Bi-disc represents heaven.

    Thanks for posting this. I just bought a similar one recently with a sterling bale and wondered about the stone. It is marked Korea on the chain. IMG_4144.jpg IMG_4143.JPG IMG_4076.JPG

    It was, and still is.:) But that could have been confusing to abdel, he hasn't seen the first thritto post, and English is not his native language.
    Not mine either, but I can play around with it a bit more.;)

    They made chains by the gazillion in Korea in the 1970s and 1980s. It doesn't relate to the pendant.

    @abdel I apologize for this inside joke. To explain, in English "ditto" means the same thing again or the second time. AJ made a joke by creating a word using the combination of "three" and "ditto" making "thritto" meaning a third time.

    It's been in use for a while, but a non-native speaker might not have run across it.

    That makes sense. I got this at the resale shop, so I didn't know it's history.
