This is a pair of estate new-vintage, old-stock Navajo silver dangle earrings. There sterling silver earrings are a bear set with an oval of black onyx. Two feathers dangle from the feet. The earrings hang 2 1/4″ long from the top of the ear wire. The bears are 3/4″ wide. The back of the earrings are signed FB. The silver has natural dark patina in spots that can be polished off with silver polish. Total weight of the pair is 3.6dwt/5.5grams.
This jewelry is not pre-owned, which also means that it is not used. It is new, but may look pre-owned because of the natural toning/patina it has taken on in storage in the last 16 years. It is normal for silver to take on a color after being exposed to the air for some time. Rather than take all the time to polish it up, since we have so much, we are just leaving it as untouched nostalgia. The buyer can decide if they would like to polish it up. Some of it actually has the old black magic marker pricing written on the underside still.
We bought a large collection of beautiful Native American jewelry from a client who’s family had owned a retail shop for Native American made goods. Both our client & his family shared such a love for this stuff! It had spent 16 years in storage before we acquired the entire collection. So, there’s the story about this fabulous collection. We hope you enjoy looking at the many pieces of it. It truly is amazing!
