<p>[QUOTE="reader, post: 234385, member: 255"]I give up LOL although I don't see it as hobbyist-could be an Anglo jeweler but the more I look at it I find the design elements a bit of a disjointed mix of modern and traditional-don't get me wrong AJ-it's a stunning piece but there is something a bit odd about it. There are so many non traditional NA artists out there but usually there's some consistency of elements and you've got the modernist stuff going on with that odd cartouche-I have never seen that and I live part-time in the SW. I know Asia was suggested earlier by Bear (I think) and Mexico by me. The odd mix and the clean modern bezels make me think that it may not have been made in the US as I initially thought, but again, I doubt that we'll ever know and I will post back after showing it to some friends in Santa Fe. Just enjoy it or sell it as Southwestern.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
