I think that this might be Zuni, but not sure. i don't think i've ever had a silver and turquoise piece before. I found it at an antique store the other day. Any info appreciated! I need to find a chain to put it on and i'll either wear it or give it to a friend.
Very nice ! love the turquoise .
Thank you valentino and Manikin. I always think of Dine [Navajo] jewelry as being larger and more baroque, and Zuni as being smaller, petite and delicate. But i could be way off!
Oh wow! I LOVE this piece because it's just so raw and natural... I agree with Mary, and although because it's not signed, we aren't supposed to say it's made by any tribe, but I can to you because I'm not "selling" it to you or anyone else. I believe it's Navajo "snake eyes" and very old. Early 1900's. If you choose not to wear it, it absolutely will make a beautiful gift!
