Because TTIS - name this

Posted by bink (aka bink) Sep 19 '12, 12:38

Long time ago a friend gave this to me. Does anyone know if there's a name for this type of pendant? Any help is appreciated. TIA

hi bink!!! not sure, but any chance it is Tuareg? my first guess was zuni but I think that's wrong. -- nm - loosilu Sep 19, 12:43 8
- no, I think tuareg is wrong. -- nm - loosilu Sep 19, 12:44 7
  - yeah, not it, I just googled..though I figure someone has to know.. - bink Sep 19, 12:47 6
    - Meg is the southwest expert, she might know if it's native or not. -- nm - loosilu Sep 19, 12:48 5
      - Thanks, I'll message her. -- nm - bink Sep 19, 12:50 3
        
        I'm here - and doesn't look native to me. -- nm - Meg Sep 19, 12:51 2
        
        I have seen photos of other people (that I don't know) wearing one so there must be a name for it -- nm - bink Sep 19, 13:04
        
        I wonder if it's not an ethnic piece. Just an individual artisan. -- nm - loosilu Sep 19, 12:53

      - I was going to try and get out that way this summer to see family, but the whole house-buying thing kind of happened instead. -- nm - znufrii Sep 19, 12:50 2
        
        Sounds practical - bink Sep 19, 12:54 1
