  • Actually this detail is very helpful in seeing things more precisely than the photo of the overall shape - but it is great to have both. I like this very much! And I still think: Uzbekistan. Thanks again for a wonderful image!

  • I think these are a bit confusing since I have several interesting old photos of Kazakh things that are like this. I think I did show you those in an email. no color images but again very similar in their use of these pointed shapes and encrusted inlay. I will post examples for the forum to see where I'm going with this. 

    I also need to look at borders of where Uzbekistan bumps up at Kazakhstan and see get the photos translated to see where in Kazakhstan they are from.
