Navajo Indian $wa$tika Early Fred Harvey Ingot Sterling Silver Fob Pendant Charm

  
See my other auctions for more great historic items! Early Fred Harvey Era 1900s-1930s. This is a beautiful old Indian hand crafted fob "dog tag" pendant charm made by Indian silversmiths dating back to decades of Fred Harvey era, around 1900. Indian silversmith used American or Mexican silver coins.

You may consider this classic authentic and early example of a Navajo silver. This one is early punched Navajo design and hand hammered, cut, chiseled and filed condition is rudimentary as expected without breaks or repairs. The surrounding sun or solar corona pattern appears to be hand incised or engraved (not stamped). Typically these types of charms were made as souvenirs from states such as New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Texas or California. It weighs approx 4.81 grams & measures 1-3/8 (35 mm) in length and is in excellent condition.

It is designed for a man or woman. A very historic attractive earlier higher quality Fred Harvey Navajo piece ready to wear or proudly display. Unmarked that we can see. Some very minor slight tarnish patina remains but buffed enough to wear nicely.

Very high quality piece in excellent vintage condition. I have more fine vintage jewelry, porcelain, dolls, & vintage antique marbles listed!
