On offer is an authentic, early vintage NAVAJO Native American. Adorned with hand-stamped motifs and a fine southwestern sky blue hand cut and polished rectangle shaped natural t urquoise stone. The turquoise appears to be from the Royston mine region of Nevada. The shape of the bolo and stone, and the color of the stone are most accurate in the second photo.

The BOLA / BOLO is not hallmarked which was quite common in earlier Native American jewelry. We believe this Bola / Bolo tie was created circa 1960.

There is a marginal fleabite in the upper right hand corner of the matrix of the stone in this gem quality southwestern sky blue hand cut and polished turquoise. 7/8" long x 5/8" wide. This piece has the traditional old loop fasteners in good working order and is attached to hand braided black leather cord that.

The cord is still strong, supple and wearable. Overall, the bola plaque measures approx.

1 7/8" long x 1 1/2" tapering to 1 wide. The bola is on 39 1/2 long braided leather cord TOTAL. The bola tie weighs approx.

Silver and Stone Accessory, Southwest American Turquoise. Western Americana or Historic Cultural Arts and Crafts collection.

We have been involved in the design and creation of contemporary jewelry at the undergraduate and post graduate level since 1967. In 1975 we opened a gallery of hand wrought fine art contemporary jewels and have since handled thousands of unique, one of a kind and limited edition pieces crafted predominantly by American artisans with a special emphasis on Native American Art.
