<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IvaPan, post: 7978039, member: 78949&quot;]Thanks again, Any! After I posted the images I saw the difference with the Mexican one. Although similar looking overall.</p><p>I have quite a few local craft pieces and many of them are on a similar type of &quot;chain&quot; or &quot;cord&quot; (or suspension?? not sure of the term) - thin leather band or braided thread. These were quite popular here in the 1970s and 1980s, when gold and precious stone jewelry was not sold freely in the shops (only on the black market). They were crafted by licensed craftspeople (only registered members of the Union of Artists were allowed to make and sell) and costed quite a bit because they were regarded as pieces of applied art. Now many are being thrown away by the descendants as not worthy, and can be bought very cheap at flee markets.</p><p>Thank you for the tip, to be honest, if I ever go selling, I prefer to deal with craft and costume items under the radar of the scammers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
