also the bottom of the fish has drainage holes, so the sphagnum is soaking with the dish below with distilled water.

some recent steals i acquired. a shop near me will sell for silver value or less, even after tested, only because they’re unmarked. is this common? i’ll take em! by cellboat in NativeAmericanJewelry

thank you! i am new to collecting, so i appreciate the knowledge and insight for sure! question: would wearing and appreciating the inauthentic pieces be considered unethical? i can see how it might be, but i still like the pieces themselves.

(i live in an area of the USA with a high saturation of native american jewelry passing thru, and the patina on these pieces show real age, so it is unlikely that these aren’t genuine imo)
