Turquoise Ref 2024 By Turquoisethorns On Deviantart The free form shaped stone on the left is usually a navajo made giveaway. plus, coral and turquoise is found made by both navajo & zuni artists, but definitely favored to the navajo. zuni left, navajo right. the navajo piece is easy to identify, big, heavy, and a nice free form shaped stone. The turquoise pendant is nice, but pretty generic in terms of the style. no telling who made it or where it was made. the comment about block lettering stamps is on the money. without provenance, the maker and even country of origin remains anyone’s guess.
Turquoise Ref By Glowingbunny On Deviantart I like your nice old squash blossom! i agree, pictures of the reverse side would help! but to answer your question, yes, it is “real”. age…my guess would be 1960 70s. there was an explosion of this type of jewelry made during that time, varying quite a bit in quality and quite a bit made by non native people. the silver work on yours is well done and the beads are center punched; i. The turquoise is inexpensive treated stone, probably kingman, and at the time would have been considered near bottom shelf in terms of price and quality. these were usually delivered unstrung, with the stringing taking place in the shop or trading company which commissioned the work. Questions about the origins or meanings of your jewelry? ask here!. Hi all! i’ve read through various posts (most informative) and today i met a very helpful gentleman in tucson that explained so much about concho belts. however, i have one part i’m trying to understand hopefully you all can help. what (if any) is the visible difference between machine and hand stamped on the back on the concho? if i find a belt with no hallmarks, is there something.

The mark on the naja of my squash blossom necklace reads pz, with the z directly under the p. i have found two rings with this mark online but no one can identify the maker. any thoughts?. I have a gorgeous julian lovato turquoise ring that unfortunately has damage to the turquoise. the stone is firmly in there nothing moves, so the damage is mostly cosmetic. the damage consists of a crack and chip. i tried to get photos of this. my question is, does it still hold value as a julian lovato piece even with the damaged turquoise? i’m not even sure what type of turquoise it is. @tepowell beautiful turquoise & i think its current sterling setting is ideal for it. that being said, i agree with @chicfarmer about considering to wear it as a bolo tie. i wear my bolo ties more like a necklace and never tighten them all the way up. i understand that may not work for you. in any case, it would definitely make for a pretty pendant. I have noticed a ton of listings on ebay, etsy etc.for “genuine” navajo pieces with the hallmark qt 925 mostly offered for way less than “real” identifiable pieces. eg. “beautiful qt sterling quac (new mexico)” “coral, turquoise, onyx inlay” etc. many listings say the pieces are from quoc turquoise inc. but i can’t find anything to say whether these pieces were made by.
