    My mother bought this in Arizona about 25 years ago. She was told it was "old pawn" It is not signed by the maker, just stamped "sterling" My mother has passed away and now it belongs to my sister. She wants me to find out for her what tribe this came from and what the approximate age would be. It's 3 dimensional with a high relief, very heavy. Thanks!

      Not possible to tell your sister who made it or what tribe the person belonged to without some sort of identifying mark on the bracelet. It's gorgeous, but the silversmith will remain unknown. Possibly 1970s/1980s.
      If I were to guess I would say Navajo, because cuff bracelets are traditionally made by the Navajo.

      Here is the correct definition of Old Pawn:
