    I am in the process of cataloging my diverse collection of stuff per request of my two daughters. So I am starting with the mcm loft in Las Vegas. Both unsigned. Years ago I posted the long green thing. It has a flat side, I think it may be a basket handle. DSC_0234.JPG DSC_0236.JPG DSC_0242.JPG DSC_0237.JPG

    It is a bit out of my area, but the long object may be a "bob" if that is the right name....if a neckpiece had a heavy object in front, it would be necessary to put a bob or weight in the back for balance. Maybe. If I'm wrong, someone will for sure mention it.

    The critter looks more like a llama or alpaca to me.

    Maybe you saw it here. I posted a question about it about 4 years ago. It is pretty long to wear, just over 8" long and about 3/4" at widest point.

    Latin America? Maybe llama like Bronwen suggested?

    What's the bit in the foreground - is the bronze broken?
