A charming chain and dangling ball sterling necklace by Horacio Parra. Horacio de le Parra was a manager in 1950 of Conquistador which was the largest silver factory in Mexico at the time. He was a friend of both William Spratling and Hector Aguilar. This piece is certainly of the same quality as their work. It measures 15" end to end and is 1" wide. Weighing 104 grams, it is in fine original condition and signed as shown.
A wonderful necklace.

Beautiful sterling and garnet cuff links by New York studio artist Sam Kramer (1913-1964), who is considered the most significant postwar American Modernist jeweler. Suitable for a man or woman, these cuff links measure 1" by 1/2" and are in fine original condition. They weigh 26 grams total and are signed with the mushroom in a circle with rabbit ears, which is Kramer's hallmark, and sterling. Great looking cuff links from the father if Modernism.

A magnificent sterling and obsidian necklace by Enrique Ledesma. The design is strong mid-century modern with the focus of the piece off center. The craftmanship is impeccable. This is the work for which Ledesma is best known- fusing silver with stone. For a small neck only, the inner circumference is 14". It is 1 3/4" wide at the widest part of the front where the stone is. Fine original condition and signed and numbered for Ledesma as shown. A rare and very beautiful piece.
