<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joan, post: 9586937, member: 5398&quot;]Before I posted this I searched &quot;Santo Domingo&quot; on this forum and found a thread from 2016 that may have answered my main question about this pendant.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]463480[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]463481[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]463482[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]463483[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Based on this thread:&nbsp; <a href="https://www.antiquers.com/threads/questions-about-a-beaded-necklace-native-american-antique.7448/#post-107127" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquers.com/threads/questions-about-a-beaded-necklace-native-american-antique.7448/#post-107127">https://www.antiquers.com/threads/questions-about-a-beaded-necklace-native-american-antique.7448/#post-107127</a>,</p><p>and some other research, it seems like my pendant could be a 1930&#039;s or Depression-era to 1950&#039;s Santo Domingo pendant.</p><p><br /></p><p>However,&nbsp; the pendants I found online seemed to all have the entire shell as the backing for the mosaic. Here&#039;s one example:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]463484[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I found one pendant in the shape of mine, but more refined, that was called a Zuni pendant.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]463485[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t think any of the Santo Domingo examples I saw had metal strips between the mosaic areas (like mine), but Zuni pieces did. The mosaic pieces on mine look like turquoise, pipestone, serpentine, shell, and the little black piece I don&#039;t know--maybe from a vinyl record, as mentioned online.</p><p><br /></p><p>I realize eBay titles are not reliable, so I&#039;m wondering if anyone on this forum can tell me if my pendant is Santo Domingo or Zuni. I understand I&#039;d have to call it Southwestern if selling it online.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
