<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 501716, member: 51"]Just an opinion here... I don't think this is a student piece and I don't think Tibetan. My guess would be artisan. (Or if student, one that was well on their way to making great pieces.) Strikes me that it might be something from a nicer craft show. The extra feature where they did a little inlaid pattern <i>on the back</i> of the center part of the pendant -- just little extra, really no purpose except for the owner. A touch like that you aren't going to see on anything mass produced.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are some phenomenal craft shows in places like Chicago. Some really unusual items from local artists. I have a good friend who sells glass work at different ones. I could see this at one of the booths.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would have made a bee-line for this if I had seen it at my thrift.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
