<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 4292404, member: 2844&quot;]I have a few pre-Columbian Peruvian textile fragments that I got from a friend of my parents who used to live in Peru. He had a collection of pre-Columbian items which just left Peru in the late 60s along with his household goods. </p><p>There had been a ban before, but from 1929-1985 artifacts in private possession only had to be registered. I have no idea what that means for the legality under Peruvian law, but here in the Netherlands it is OK if it was in your possession before 1970.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think your pendant dates from the 70s, but the fabric may have been in the owners possession before the pendant was made. </p><p>Peruvian silver is generally 925, but it was probably not made in Peru, because there are no Peruvian marks or a specific Peruvian style. The silver does look like sterling to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
