Yep;best quality of the 3 but least weight. But that’s how he operates. You know the “ball&cone” earbobs that were worn in multiples for hundreds of years? I mentioned that I’d seen that a guy had found 5 or 6 near Mackinac-huge gathering/ trade area-& how neat it would be to have real, 400yo stuff.
“Eh,$25 worth of silver.”

It’s hard to say what it is on any particular piece for me. They are all so individual with their maker’s quirks that it may be a great stone on one piece or an unusual design on another, or just looks like it’s had an interesting history. The first piece I bought was kind of beat up and uneven looking but the stones were different colors and it just called to me. The seller thought it was a family piece that wasn’t meant to sell. I don’t know about that but it’s the item as a whole for me…something about it just looks interesting.
