Which part of "Native America" does this whatchamacallit hail from?

@OrbitOrange Yes, I thought about that… The beading work on them is actually pretty precise and I know that they create work in all kinds of themes, but I just thought it was funny that the text read as though it was traditional Native American theme.

Gotta love the knives replacing feathers for tips, whoever cooked these up. :smile:

Traditional may not be the exact right word. But they are pretty cool earrings and I wouldn’t be at all surprised if they were Native American.

The show Rutherford Falls made a point to showcase modern Native beadwork. Here are a few articles that highlight the bead work and jewelry from the show:

@RedlandMaggie I recognize that image, too (and yes, this artist does some awesome work!)… That’s from Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

Interesting and stupid frankenpendant. Looks to be easily converted back. As for the horse as @Ziacat points out, dolorem ipsum.

Last night I had a nightmare about the shop that made this pendant. I went in and fired every last employee.

Oh my gosh! That poor horse. And I pity the person that ends up buying this and thinking they have some kind of great antique find. Looks like it would be easy to take apart and fix.
