The only thing I know this is a very old Silver decorated with dragons decorated on the front and back site tiger's claw pendant. It's not marked but tested for silver.Considerable traces of use but a treasure for a lover of this kind of jewelry. Perhaps some one can tell me more about?

valentino97 you could be right but I really don't know. I do not know the origin or the date as I wrote in the description. But thanks anyway for your comment and loving.
A fascinating and beautiful piece, really love it.
I love it!
check out my silver frog I added today.
Cheers rose
ATTWOOD thanks for compliment andfor posting your sweet little frog!
Very nice Agram!
Certainly Indochina for the repousse silver work, because of the dragon, and old because the dryness lines of the claw.
Probably a watch fob from a hunt trophy around 1880/1910.
My grand dads settled in Indochina at this time, and both my parents born in Saïgon.
There were tigers in Indochina at this time, local name was "ong cop" for "lord tiger" I.e "seigneur tigre".
I'm ashamed to say my father loved hunting and I have an old photo of him and the tiger he killed :-/
Kyratango thanks for your comment and loving. We agree about hunting animals but formerly often thought it very differently.
catteann thanks for loving
kyratango is correct tiger tooth, but Buddhist! I have photo of one!
totacat thanks for your useful comment and loving. I've looked at all your published items but cannot find your tiger tooth. Please let me know where I can find it?
I am sorry, I found by googling tiger tooth! and hit images, there were lots of photos!
