Polishing is such a personal thing but I collect mid century Mexico on a small scale and I want all my Teran, Los Castillo, Pineda, etc. looking...
Personal opinion but I agree with a local dealer of vintage Mexico who would ask a small fortune for that piece and would not have it in the case...
I know it’s about age and actual Tibetan religious use.
Hundreds of thousands...I’ll leave this question to @Any Jewelry but in the 70s ancient ones could be bought for around $500-$1500 depending on...
Forgot to add that I was told Central Coast. Again, consider it hearsay but the source was a long gone dealer of precolumbian objects.
[ATTACH] The one with the red looks very similar to one of mine which was identified as Peruvian 11-1350 but consider that hearsay.

Funny that you said that as some part of a turtle crossed my mind but I’ve a lot of turtle (a 70s hippie bag made out of a shell-cowboy boots,...

It looks odd to me too which is why I wanted others to doublecheck. It’s the top view that looks odd-it looks better from the side.
I’m over “dream cars”. Too much a pain for upkeep. I played that game all through the 80s but my fave was a pristine red on red 62 vette in 85....
LOVE...maybe my 3rd choice...
Oolala a 70s Jensen Intraceptor. Be still my heart. i wouldn’t turn it down but my fantasy would be a 56-58 Dual Ghia or a 57/58 Cadillac...
