William Spratling's Mexican Silver locket which is 2in. long including the loop for a chain, 1.25 in. deep and 1in. across is featured in todays listing. The stones have striations front and back as most from this era of the Mexican Silver Renaissance do. This example is much better than most found. You can see that some rise to the top but the stones are stable and none go all the way thru or across the amethyst stone. The color is dark and beautiful...

A hand made large silver and glass Arts and Crafts pin brooch. This fine 2-5/8" pin has a trombone clasp and a hand hammered finish evocative of Arts & Crafts jewelry. It has a large cabochon glass stone which looks like natural agate stone and we think this pin predates 1920 but we aren't positive (however glass stones were used in earlier examples). It is unsigned and it tests as silver...

This is a spectacular sterling and tiger eye ring. What makes it so special and unique is the large round gorgeous, vibrant tiger eye stone. It is a size 6 1/4 but plain in the back so could be sized. The stone measures 7/8" diameter and is free of chips, cracks or scratches.( The white dot is refection from the camera). Weighing a sturdy 16 grams, it is signed Steinmarkt Berlin. I have not been able to find any information on the maker. Smashing on the hand!
Antonio Pineda is one of the most celebrated Maestro's from the Mexican Silver Renaissance. This iconic bracelet was not just designed it was engineered with high sweeps that come to a peak and an amethyst that one pushes to open. Photos show a side view of the mechanism. The design bends and refracts light that catches the eyes of all who pass you by. There is no damage to the bracelet and closes with a crisp click. You will see glare in my pictures...
