<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 9885562, member: 2844&quot;][USER=11243]@Roshan Ko[/USER] explained the background well. Of course.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> It is very complicated and a story on many levels. The Mahabharata is long and complicated, but if you are interested in Krishna and Arjuna and their interaction before the battle, the Bhagavad Gita is a wonderful read. The Gita is part of the Mahabharata, but often published and studied on its own. It is used as a teaching full of life lessons about doubt, the consideration that things may not be black and white but choices have to be made, and of sacrifice for the greater good.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think you are thinking of the cheap souvenir jewellery that came over in the 1960s and early 70s&nbsp; with the Hippies and continued to be sold for the &#039;Boho&#039; crowd. But India is also known for 1000 fineness silver filigree and other high finenesses. Those high fineness pieces reflect Indian culture better than the cheap &#039;stuff&#039;.</p><p>Although this filigree chariot was also made as a souvenir, the whitish colour of the silver looks ca .900 or higher to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
