[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9605196, member: 2844"]You're right, Rachel didn't. I read '20 on the label, which is usually 1920, which is what I assumed it to mean. But that still leaves the French language. I'm sorry, but your reasoning just doesn't make sense to me, I can't see any logic to it. Why would a French language item with a name from a French colony be American? Even if the date was in the 1940s? Btw, there are Dutch people with a Ukrainian surname as well. And most refugees from the 1917 Russian revolution fled to France. Ukraine was part of Russia at the time.[/QUOTE]
