VINTAGE TORTALITA STERLING & BISBEE TURQUOISE PENDANT; LARGE, HEAVY, & RARE!

This beautiful sterling and Bisbee turquoise pendant was made by Native American artist LORENZO TORTALITA, who hails from the Kewa Pueblo (formerly known as Santo Domingo). The pendant is 2 5/8" across at its widest point and 3 5/16" high (including the top loop). The necklace is 24 3/8" long, including the hook and its loop, and the silver beads are strung on a strong silver chain. I have not tested the chain for silver content. The pendant and necklace weigh a whopping 4.2 troy oz on my digital scale. There are minor imperfections in the beads and the usual faint surface scratches on the pendant. Overall, though, this piece is in wonderful condition. It has tremendous presence. Last but not least -- credit where it's due: many thanks to Richard at www.kivatrading.com for identifying the turquoise as Bisbee!

Shipping, handling, and insurance will be an additional $6; please note that that applies only to addresses in the United States. If you’re interested in this piece and live overseas, please contact me. I will not ship abroad without insurance, which would add quite a bit to the price and is not available for some countries. Please use a personal check or PayPal for payment. I do prefer a check, to avoid the PayPal fee, but it will have to clear before I ship the pendant. Thanks for looking, and I hope you enjoyed the view.

NATIVE AMERICAN FINE SILVER .970 BRACELET WITH TURQUOISE & CORAL INLAY

WOW !!! This is just a fabulous bracelet.. The turquoise & coral inlay work is wonderful & the colors just POP. It is very heavy for a bracelet this size 20.4g and it is made from a higher grade of silver than sterling, .970, see stamp. It is hallmarked WJ. The only silversmith in my references with this hallmark is Jim Wilson, a Navajo. I emailed him a couple of days ago to see if it is his but haven't heard back yet. The inside measurement is 5" with a 1 1/4" gap.

Price $250.00

CAROL FELLEY SS Cuff Bracelet; Full Figural LEOPARD or CHEETAH

This handsome CAROL FELLEY STERLING SILVER CUFF BRACELET is adorned with a detailed, full figural LEOPARD or CHEETAH. The details are great, from the individual spots to the front paw casually draped over the other, to the curled tail. The beast is about 1 5/8" across, 1 1/2" from front to back, and rises a full 1/2" from the cuff. The cuff is 1 7/8" wide in the center, tapering to 1 1/16" at the opening. There's a subtle flare in the silver near the edges -- it wasn't left completely flat, and that gives it extra presence. From front to back, the cuff is 1 7/8", the inside measurement is about 2 3/8 inches from side to side, and the opening is 1 3/8" across. The bracelet has a nice presence on your arm -- it weighs 2.22 troy oz on my digital scale. The silver was used generously -- this piece was meant to be worn for many years to come. Apart from the usual light surface scratches, it's in great condition. When I looked online, I found other SUNRISE pieces from Felley, but this is the only leopard (or cheetah; my knowledge of the great cats is spotty . . . sorry; couldn't resist) that I found. If you're on the prowl for a great cat-ch (I'm on a roll here; don't stop me), you've arrived."
