Navajo Bracelet Early Fred Harvey Era w Snake Stamps, 5 Natural Turquoise Stones
WHAT IS GREAT ABOUT IT: an old beautiful and very special early Fred Harvey period Navajo bracelet, hand constructed from ingot, with gorgeous elaborate stamp work and five beautiful natural, luminously gorgeous, turquoise stones graduated in size. Framing each of the stones which are plain bezel set is twisted wire and raised tiny dots. It’s a very early classic piece, highly collectible with snake heads stamped on each terminal. It’s a wonderful old piece. CONDITION: Excellent vintage, wearable, collectible — with the exception that one of the internal of the four foundation wires has a split. It can be cold soldered (lasered) on top of the split, easily, to protect it but as long as there is no big stress on it (you don’t want to try to size it yourself by pulling or squeezing), it should be just fine with normal wear because the split isn’t on a stress point and is well protected by the other wires. MEASUREMENTS: internal silver alone length 5-5/8″ with an additional gap of 1-1/8″ for a total length of 6-3/4″ width at center of 1-1/8″ tapering to 1/2 at the terminals for comfort weight 40grams unsigned, usual for the time and not marked for metal content which is also usual for that time, but it’s coin or sterling silver at. SUMMARY: This is a beautiful very early bracelet with excellent gorgeous natural turquoise stones that greened with age and have luminous coloration, beautiful stamp work and an elegant look.
