[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 396401, member: 2844"]In order for something to be a Pita Maha piece, it would have to be signed by a recognized member of Pita Maha. Many beautiful Balinese sculptures were made by people who were not Pita Maha members, and many were never even signed. I only have one Balinese Art Deco piece that is signed by a member of Pita Maha. Is it my favourite or my most valuable? No, it isn't. In short, if it isn't signed by a member of Pita Maha, you can't call it Pita Maha.;) If you want to buy unsigned pieces of Pita Maha quality, the first thing you can ask yourself is, would this piece have been given the go-ahead by the critical eyes of the board of Pita Maha? I love Bali Art Deco, but don't fuss too much about Pita Maha, or only buying art that was made in Mas. I just buy what I like. Art has to be of quality and 'speak' to me.[/QUOTE]
