Was it Asch-Grossbardt?  I have some of their pieces from way back when.  Lovely jewelry.

No, that doesn't sound right. I'll look for the invoice and get back to this thread with the brand.

I also bought a turquoise pendant from the seller from the Q when they were discontinuing the line. That one was marked down.

I'll also google Asch-Grossbardt. Curious.

Thanks for your replies everyone! @Kachina624 - I found out it IS red spiny oyster. I have some of that, but this is a brighter red.

HEllo. My pendants are by Kabana. Found out that they are a made in the USA company not Greek! Made me smile. The pendant in the picture is the one I have with the heart being spiny oyster instead of mother of pearl.

The jewelry is beautiful. I couldn't afford it at today's prices. Beautifully made.
