This extraordinary Native American sterling bangle bracelet is 2.5" wide all the way around. The inside measurement is 2.5" wide by 2.25" and the opening at the back is 1.25". It weighs 3.6 ounces or 65.9 dwt. There is pierced open work in the silver, clearly hand cut. The elaborate design consists of a center circle inlaid with a bird in black and white stones and a tiny red dot at the neck, plus two kinds of cactus in green, one with coral flowers, all surrounded by a Greek key border. On the sides of the center circle are two circles inlaid with four pieces of mother of pearl in slight relief, further decorated with four circles of dots. The borders of the cuff repeat the Greek key and dot circle decoration. There are no maker's marks, but I guarantee that the piece is sterling. The cuff comes from a collection that ceased in the 1970's. The condition is excellent, except for one tiny chip in the mother of pearl inlay on the bird at the lower right where it meets the black inlay. It is hardly noticeable. I have not polished the bracelet.

This is an outstanding Native American cuff bracelet that is a fairly large size and could fit a man with a small or medium wrist. The bangle is 2-1/4" wide at the center and tapers to 1-1/4" at the back. The inside measurement is 2.9" wide by 2".It is fairly heavy and weighs 90.6 dwt or 141 g. The sterling bangle is profusely inlaid with large nuggets of turquoise with a lot of matrix and deeply colored coral set in bezels. One particularly unusual section alternates three turquoise nuggets with two stripes of coral. The background for the stones is deeply oxidized to heighten the contrast with the stones. The back is marked sterling with a maker's logo that I have not been able to identify. The piece comes from a collection that ended in the 1970's and the condition is excellent. I have not polished the bracelet.

This unusual Native American necklace is 22.5 inches around the neck. The naja is 3.5 inches long, plus the tail which is also 3.5 inches long. Along the necklace chain are sterling silver, turquoise and coral beads, plus some round brown and beige beads. The naja has turquoise nuggets and coral set in bezels, plus what looks like two bear claws on the sides. What I call the tail has more sterling, turquoise and coral. There are no marks on the piece, which comes from a collection that ended in the 1970's. The condition is excellent, and I have left the necklace unpolished.
