Hello Douglas and Sara,

    I'd guess that you have some sort of cool design that they want to
    replicate in gold. Perhaps a customer asked them if they could
    reproduce the piece. They could have been interested in your
    showcase display. Maybe you should just go across the street,
    introduce yourselves, and ask them why they were photographing your
    work. At least they'll know that you know! 

    As to legality, ask a lawyer. 

    Let us know what you find out about this mysterious situation. I
    hope they weren't "design-napping", 

Judy in Kansas
