[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 7974664, member: 2844"]Correct. It is only specific to certain cultures or periods when in combination with other techniques or design details. In your case it looks like it was made by a jewellery crafter, not a silversmith. That doesn't make it any less attractive though, it is just another way of making things, and often a different market too. Same here. And together we 'kletsen een eind in de lucht', literally 'chatter an end in the air'.;) (Today's Dutch, especially for you. :joyful:) True. There are tax registers, but those are more recent, and not available to non-official sources or researchers.[/QUOTE]
