[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1948985, member: 2844"]The stone chip inlay brooch(?)/pendant(?) was not inspired by Margot de Taxco enamel jewellery, but by a turquoise inlaid Mixtec jewel. The Margot de Taxco (Margot Van Voorhies) earrings are enameled. She designed either all silver jewellery or silver and enamel. The colours of her enamels are vibrant and were inspired by the colours of pre-Columbian jewellery and art. Her 'confetti enamels' could have been inspired by pre-Columbian stone chipwork, or even by the finer chipwork of her contemporaries.[/QUOTE]
