[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 398430, member: 2844"]I would.:) I have seen others quite similar as well. On Bali, when a piece was succesful or popular it was soon copied by others. This was totally acceptable since Bali has a communal culture, not individualist like many other cultures. Copying stopped when pieces no longer sold. A simple matter of supply and demand. The ashtray on Art from Bali is later than mine. I don't know if mine was the very first, but it could have been, because the maker is well-known. As you probably know, since you live there, the communal viewpoint is still the same in Balinese culture. Which is also why they have no qualms about copying arts and crafts from other parts of the world.[/QUOTE]
