[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1094461, member: 2844"]I agree, Mexican and serpentine. Based on pre-Columbian designs. As far as I know Rapa Nui/Easter Island jewellery is either .900 silver with delicate designs taken from rongo rongo script, or the usual Pacific shell necklaces etc. I have silver rongo rongo earrings, but the box they are in is blocked by other stuff because we have had some work done in the house. So no photos. But to give an impression, this is the design on my earrings: [RIGHT][IMG]http://luc.devroye.org/DeniseKoehler-RongoRongoA-1998-Small.png[/IMG][/RIGHT] More rongo rongo script: [LEFT][IMG]http://luc.devroye.org/DeniseKoehler-RongoRongoB-1998.gif[/IMG][/LEFT] [URL]http://luc.devroye.org/fonts-35825.html[/URL][/QUOTE]
