[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 293447, member: 5833"]I am getting strictly pottery, although the mirrored birds looking back are a nice fit, as is the connection with rain, which was my first [I]gestalt[/I] of the pendant. Not pasting in the photo because it is very large. Here are mirrored non-water bird birds: [URL]https://www.shiprocksantafe.com/items/38311[/URL] Yes, probably will. Would probably never get around to wearing it, even though I like the pendant very much. I don't often think to wear the other turquoise pendant & earrings I have & sold a pair of Phyllis Laate chandelier earrings for same reason. See I would need to be careful in how I applied 'Dishta-style' in a description. I meant it in the way I keep seeing it, as virtually synonymous with 'flush channel set' for the turquoise. Yes, only the earrings are at all Dishta-style in design. All jewellery I see with flush set stones is described as Zuni, but know enough not to assume this is correct in every instance. The pendant itself certainly looks like a mixed marriage: turquoise set Zuni-style; silver part is more Hopi style. [IMG]http://hopi.jewelry/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/cropped-576.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]
