Hi Anne
There is a distinct similarity between the two, so mine is probably the same type of thing. I have googled Elvis Drandic, but no sign of him on the web, which is a shame, it would be interesting to see his other work.
It has been fascinating to be part of such a good discussion about it's origins, some people have said they worried about posting that it might be a recent and lower status object, but I prefer the truth any time
