I was told this is not Tommy Jackson's work but from India

    Image 1.jpeg Image 2.jpeg Image 3.jpeg Image 4.jpeg This ring is marked TJ and 925. I think there is another Native American jewelry maker with that mark as well. I bought on Invaluable or the other large one some time ago. It looks Southwest/Native American to me, but no expert in those areas. Someone wrote and told me on Ebay it was not Tommy Jackson. It looks like his mark to me. They also said it was from India, but haven't a clue how they would figure that. Any help appreciated.

    Agree, it looks nothing like his work or his mark.
    His mark, the T and J are not lined up, and he adds 'Jackson':

    Tommy Jackson's style:

    The stones and the way they are set. Both are found in India and Indonesia.
    I think out of the two it could be Indonesian. Indian makers rarely sign their work, Indonesians often do. Also the use of pearls is more Indonesian, as is the use of silver granules.
    Whoever made it, it is a nice ring.

    I agree. Indonesian probably, or even Thai, but not Native American.
