<p>[QUOTE="Penelope, post: 2464141, member: 15385"]I recently acquired a gorgeous sterling and turquoise ring that was stamped with the Mexican Taxco mark AND Navajo. Very, very odd. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> I understand what you are saying though about identifying the pieces properly. And I know the laws of regarding Native American jewelry as we all should. Yet the world is selling genuine Native American jewelry safely somehow without having been there from the beginning of the pieces. You can also apply that to just about anything else made in the world though since we're not there when it's made, everything is being copied in China, and even if we were there it would be advised to have an unbiased witness in the event of trouble. Much to think about there. My son-in-law is an attorney, next time I see him I'll bring this up and get his thoughts on it though his field is family law.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
