[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9495519, member: 2844"]No, the motifs are pre-Columbian inspired, the back is Modernist. It is Peruvian, probably 1960s. The original of the gold figure is on the Sun Gate at Tiwanaku, Bolivia. It was used by the Peruvian phone company when I was there in the 1970s, as a winged messenger. It was even on the cover of the phone book, really nice.:happy:[/QUOTE]
