I'm not suggesting that video games of any kind lead to violence. I'm imagining that the sort of person who spends a lot of time at the computer...
It is in Oz. :)
Spirit of the time, but I'd be afraid the avid market for this would be among the sort of people who one day go out & shoot up a place of worship...
The dragon/serpent looks much less subtly done than other areas. Has it been overpainted?
My kind of box. Was trying to find a good photo example with both a good face & hair parted down the middle, but nothing wanted to come along....

And then there was silence! Love this, with its ginkgo leaf motif. I can see it on a flapper's sautoir, swinging wildly as she dances the night...
Very odd name. Could be Eycars, equally as unproductive in search as Eyears. Maybe a private joke on Eye-Ears?
@Any Jewelry Any reaction to this? Name could be Dutch in origin, but think shape of cartouches is wrong for Netherlands marks?
Keep contorting myself into Franeker; fingers crossed not enough....
Separate names with a comma.
