<p>[QUOTE="Smudged, post: 645754, member: 10938"]Ahhhh, thank you AJ! I was pretty sure Indian was right but narrowing it down meant I had hit a brick wall! Later is a good bet as like you said it doesn't quite fit the Raj period but looks too old fashioned for modern. I hadn't considered post independence so thanks for that, soooo much work went into it, I love it and wear it often. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your lions are magnificent! One thing occurs to me though... the silver looks older, and I have to say I would think an eastern origin too at first glance, especially with the 'feathery' area and what looks almost like clouds on the end pieces. Do you think the gold work could be later and added to 'save' or upgrade an older piece?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
