Salvaged these from a bag of jeweler’s scrap silver that I bought at an estate sale. I love the design on the button cover and the earring is delightful.

I like the button cover design. The turquoise looks like it may be glass. The earring is Bali style.

@Steve Great resource. I wonder if I have enough random tools laying about such that I might be able to make one out of some scrap copper.

The plumed serpent on the button cover appears to be Avanyu. A water guardian that is sometimes also seen on pottery. Very nice.

Thanks for the insight. I wore it today. Kind of looked like a mini bolo-tie without the tie :slightly_smiling_face:

@Jemez2 I truly like your Avanyu pendant! I rarely see jewelry with this motif. The warm, natural patina & nice turquoise cab adds to its allure.
