I found a nice silver chain with pendant of Sterling silver and picture of cat on bone or ivory.
The woven silver chain is (my guess 800 Turkish silver) there is no I'd marking on chain.
The drawing of the cat is scrimshaw on bone or ivory.
The chain is 18 inches long while the pendant is 2x.5 inches.
There are interesting marking on ring were toggle end enters.
If anyone have seen this type of art please let us in on this unique art.
I found these two rings with a metal detector... https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/b6/2f/c2/b62fc222c855f30c698846c2128d698b.jpg
I did some seaching and the only thing i could find with this pattern was this... http://www.wishbop.com/goods-535-Tibetan-Handmade-Necklace-Tibetan-Sterling-Longevity-Necklace.html
So maybe from Tibet, i wouldn't like to say for sure though.
Thanks for the love racer4-4.
Thanks to you tiger chips for the reference material.
The more I read it seem that the jewelry and other arts are copied or influenced into some simular works.
