Long Navajo Silver Arrow Pin ca. 1990s
A nicely done arrow pin with a well - designed, slight center indentation that gives it dimension and also catches the light when worn. Most arrow pins I see are flat, but this artist's attention to detail gives the arrow a little depth and makes it a much better piece. The curvature also makes the pin "hug" your garment for a more attractive appearance. Another nice touch, not appreciated until worn, is that the pinback doesn't run from tip to tip. That, along with the curve of the arrow, makes the pinback invisible when worn. Also, nice, clean stampwork. This is a darling item, and fun to play with in where you wear it. I've seen arrow pins worn on everything from keeping wraparound skirts closed to sudden Santa Fe breezes, to angled on hats, to worn across shoulders, to being used to keeps flaps of purses closed. And, arrow pins are always fun romantic gifts to give when you want to tell someone they've put an arrow through your heart... I'm unfamiliar with the "Three Smokes Trading Company" and the initials are too little to go on to identify the artist, but this is a lovely item of contemporary Southwest silver. Enjoy! Dimensions: Pin is 3 ¾ inches long and 5/8 inches wide. Weight is 0.30 oz. or 8 grams.
