Love the bug necklace! I have a small collection of NA bugs, so this is eye candy for me!
Is there a hallmark on the cuff?
Beautiful stuff. I think the reason I didn’t post on here is because I don’t really have one “holy grail” piece. I’ve been posting the things I would love to have on the turquoise discoveries thread.
This is so elegant and classy. Art, it’s true art.
I don’t know @Bmpdvm It’s a cuff I’ve had on my pinterest page forever, and that’s the only photo I could find of it but, it was posted as a Dishta piece.
I’ve been pining for that bug necklace since I saw it but, I’ve yet to find it. So cute!
Yeah, I have way too many but, this thread is so fun!
@Bmpdvm that Avanyu pendant is perfection! At first I thought it was going to be Preston Monongye. I love Avanyu motifs and you don’t see them too often in jewelry; they come up way more often in pottery.
I’m also an Avanyu fan! I have several pieces of Santa Clara pottery with the Avanyu. As you likely know Preston did a fabulous inlay cuff with an Avanyu that looks almost identical stylistically to this pendant, so your thought has excellent basis. They’re both grail-worthy

I love old “snake eye” bracelets similar to the one you shared, @Xtina. I really like this one.
