Description
- This distinguished bracelet comes from the days of the Santa Fe Railroad, Fred Harvey Hotels and Trading Posts.
- Made in the 1940’s / 1950’s, this type of bracelet was sold to travelers on the new highway and rail system running throughout the Southwest.
- Shops that produced pieces of this familiar split shank design, employed local Navajo artists to complete the work.
- The irregularity of the spaces of the stamps and the shank are indicative of hand stamping.
- This lovely silver bracelet features a greenish/blue, natural Blue Gem Turquoise stone.
- This piece is beautifully aged with a wonderful patina.
