  • A very nice piece, and well described.
  • As I look at this again I think it is an EXCELLENT piece.

  • Yes , was sorry to sell this, one of my personal pieces.

  • this the most elegant and beautiful piece i never see

  • Wow Linda, this is a truly magnificent piece. How could you part with it?

  • Excellent piece! I like it very much!
  • I didn't post this wonder how it came up? I was moving photos from files to files and I guess it popped out.. yes this is another personal one I sold,, very nice work and rare design. Never got another one like this.

  • It must have been on "ethnic jewels" since 23 August 2011, when it caught my attention and I commented on it. Even then, it may have been there for a while before I saw it! No idea how it came to be here, of course, but I am very glad it is - a great piece!

  • I originally posted it here on the sight but I didn't post it tonight. so I don't know how it was reposted.

    I was cleaning my files tonight and organizing them so I can find things and post more items since I have only scratched surface.  Maybe some how it was let out!

  • Was it actually reposted? I doubt it was. Whenever someone makes a comment on a piece, that of course means that the status of the image is affected. I would imagine that Akkie saw it and commented on it, which you would then see. There are also comments that were made on 24 January which would not have been made it if the piece wasn't visible on your page (as all your photos and albums are to anyone who looks through them on your page). I was the first person to comment on it then, which prompted a reaction from you, and others followed. Prior to that only one person had made a comment on the piece, in 2011: that was me, and I would have commented because the image was visible. So I would suggest that you posted it - and intentionally - in 2011. I see no reason for assuming that it hasn't been available for comment since that time: it just so happens that noone other than me commented in 2011; it was ignored by commentators during 2012; then I commented on it again on 24 January of this year, and thereafter there have been more comments. I don't think that it was "reposted".
