Vintage Squash Blossom Necklace with Beautiful Spiderweb Turquoise
This old squash blossom probably dates to 1965 or so. The turquoise is
very nice, natural spiderweb and looks GREAT! This was made with a
matching extension, which is included, so you can wear as a choker, or
as a longer necklace. Total length is about 17" without extension, and
24" with. This fine older piece is also signed by the artist on the
back side of the naja "alm" ?, and "sterling". Nice turqouise like this
is hard to find these days.

Vintage Silver Overlay Figural Earrings These are unsigned and
unmarked so my guess is that they are Hopi. They are simple and well
done and have an excellent patina. The decorative edge adds a lot to
the overall design. They are 1" across with screwbacks and guaranteed
to be coin silver or higher.

Vintage Zuni Inlay Turquoise Earrings These are the old screwback
style as you can see and I won't change that. Changing them to posts or
wires is something that a jeweler could easily do. They measure just
under 1 7/8" long . There are a coulple of hairline fractures in the
turquoise that pose no problem. The screwback finding is marked
sterling. Wonderful color.

d566. Vintage Turquoise & Heishi Tab Necklace This necklace has 30 beautiful hand cut and polished turquoise pieces with small shell heishi between. It is strung on some sturdy thread which you can see knotted at the ends and has a simple silver wire hook-eye clasp. The necklace measures 24" long, weight about 67 grams. If I could I would tell you what kind of turquoise this is, tell you how old it is and all that but I can't, because I don't know. I can tell you that it is a fine necklace. $165. |

Sterling Hopi Overlay Design Ring This is not marked sterling but
I will guarantee that it is. It does have a little mark on back that I
take to be the artist's mark, possibly Shannon Lamson whose hallmark is
a quarter sun. Size is 5 1/4 and the face is 13/16" x 7/16" . It is
comfortable to wear and I have been complimented on it when I wore it.
I'm sure you will be too.

Silver Cast Stamped Bracelet This bracelet is a very unusual
piece. It is not the norm to find a cast bracelet that is stamped and
decorated as this one is. It also has a mark on the inside that could
be either an N or a U. Measures 5" around the inside end to end with a
gap of about 15/16" and is 1 1/2" wide in the middle. It does have some
room for careful adjustment. Weight 32.8 grams.

Small Vintage Handmade Turquoise & Silver Squash Style Necklace
Measuring just short of 21" this is a pretty little necklace that is
unsigned or marked but guaranteed to be silver. My guess would be that
it is Zuni with the small pieces of turquoise in the flowers and naja.
The little round pieces in between are unusual. This necklace is nice
because it has the length to it. I find that necklaces in this style
usually tend to be short. SOLD |

Vintage Silver Indian Cuff Bracelet This bracelet is skillfully
and beautifully made. The design is simple but lovely and the patina is
excellent. It is unsigned or marked but I will guarantee it to be
silver. It is exactly 1/2" wide and 5 3/4" around the inside. Right now
the gap is at about 3/4" but this can be adjusted. I believe this one
has some age, it just has the feel of an older piece and the design is
timeless.

Vintage Silver & Agate Bracelet & Ring Set Here's an
amazing set. The stone in the bracelet measures aprox 1 7/8" x 1 3/8"
and the inside of the bracelet aprox 5 1/4" with a non-adjustable gap
of 1 1/4". It has the letters B and J on the ends of the terminals and
a J on the back in the middle. The ring also has just the J. I say it
is about a size 7 1/4 being that with a stone this long it is hard to
measure. The oval agate on this is aprox 1 5/8" x 3/4". I don't know
who the maker is and I won't guess on how old these are. Condition is
excellent and I doubt they have been worn much. ~ Fabulous~ $395 |

Vintage Sterling Ranger Buckle Set and Leather Belt The end of
the belt says 30. It is used but in good condition. I guess the picture
of the mark on the buckle is upside down because looking at the tip it
has initials starting with D... there is a little c in a circle in
front of that and STERLING BELOW. I'm not familar with the mark, but it
has a nice patina and is a good looking wearable belt for a small
waist. $79 |

Striking Vintage Sterling Mexico Blue Foil Stone Necklace Here's
a Fabulous Old necklace. The picture doesn't do it justice. There are 7
foil stones with fan like detail below. Measures 19" but could be
shortened as the chain links are large enough that it could be hooked
in any one. Signed STERLING D25.J.C GUADMEX and the eagle stamp with 21
inside it. $95 |

d620. Vintage Handmade Silver Stamped Ring The stamps on this ring do not look Navajo but it is a handmade piece none the less and a striking piece. The top measures 1 3/8" x 3/4" and the size is about 7 1/4. It is a very comfortable ring believe it or not. The band also has little stamps around it. I see there are some scratches or scrape marks on the top. Unmarked or signed but guaranteed coin silver or better. Age unknown. $55 |
