[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 392307, member: 2844"]Am I right in thinking that photos 1 and 2 are two different figures? The first with an Olmec inspired face and a big bowl, the second with a headdress and a smaller bowl? Anyway, as the others said, Mexico, possibly Guatemalan for no 1 (and 2?). Given the Olmec style face, I'd say Mexican, and likely serpentine. Jade, whether nephrite or jadeite, is out of the question imho. And I agree, the very cute bird is Inuit.[/QUOTE]
