"Inherited this ornate large… Pendant? Wall decoration?"
A: "I have seen similar pendents back home in Nepal being worn by Sherpa people during the festival of Losar. Those typically are large, ornate and are suspended on a bead necklace. They also sell a lot of similar pendents in the antique and jewelry markets of Thamel in Kathmandu. One thing that stands out is the lavender jade because almost always, the nepali pendents (at least the common ones in display) are made using green jade."

One of the things I like about the internet you can ask questions about weird stuff and usually get answers from nice people.

#11 Either I'm old or someone's really stupid to not know that that's a wall-mounted ashtray.

Governor, Yeah, I'm 73yo so I knew immediately what it was. But, smoking inside buildings hasn't been allowed for quite a few years, so kids today wouldn't have any idea. Just like something that I saw on TV, kids were given a rotary phone and told that it was a phone and gave them 10 minutes to make a call. None of them could figure it out. To us, it seems simple, but EVERYTHING is simple if you know how to use it.
