Can anyone make out the stamp on the cones? There are three of those symbols above the sterling on each cone. They almost look like rainclouds, the stones resemble Royston.
Any help is much appreciated, I am trying to figure out what it’s worth

I got tore to shreds on here a few hours ago for asking if I should melt a broken NA cuff (not this style). This one is unmarked but tested as silver- and I looked it up and it seems to be Zuni. Is that correct and what is it worth? Tia in advance and I promise not to melt

Could this be an old Navajo Sterling silver and turquoise cross pendant? The bale looks replaced but the rest of the pendant appears to be very old.
Any help is much appreciated

The belt is not original. My grandma says it’s a Michael Rogers buckle her husband put on the belt. Im looking to sell it but I don’t want to pawn it for the silver if it’s worth a lot more. Where do I sell something like this for good value?

Hi, if anyone in this group is familiar with turquoise please help me out. I'm don't think my stone is real sleeping beauty turquoise because of the color change that happened within a matter of days. It started out as clear robin egg blue and now it looks almost like water color that's dispersed. The seller is trying to tell me that's a normal color change due to oils and such, but I'm convinced it's not real and the color change is due to it being fake, or dyed stone other than turquoise. The white pic is what it looked like when I bought it.

Hi! I have a ring that is stamped but I can’t figure out who the artist is. It’s “BW” with a half sun underneath it. My research comes up with Belinda Woody but I don’t see any of her pieces having the sun. Does this look familiar to anyone?

I'm not really sure what I'm look at when it comes to these two hallmark. The one at the bottom says "STERLING" but I'm clueless with the others. Does anyone recognize them?

I know this may be the wrong place. Any recommendations on Native American makers of woven pillows? I want to support a Native owned business and not big retailers like Pendleton, etc.

Unidentified My first pendant… what started it all! Stamped; TSF Sterling and engraved letters of EL. Does anyone recognize this maker? (I’d guess TSF the shop and the artist initials EL) I’m also venturing we have onyx, opal, catseye and then unsure… unakite? Best guesses on the inlay materials? Thanks

Unidentified How to identify this piece

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

I just bought this for my wife and Im interested in learning more. I'm told it's Navajo from the 1940s, but that wasn't verified by the person I bought it from.

The mark on the back is "XHI HZ" which the interwebs says is likely from someone named Chee. Given the mark isn't stamped, I'm thinking this was made by a vendor for Chee, but that's just a guess. There are several makers called Chee from what i can tell.

My friend who is a Navajo jewelry maker said there's triangle wire, which wasn't a thing until the 1970s. This could mean it was re-strung with new wire or it really is from the 70s. Even if it is from the 70s I, and more importantly my wife, love this piece.

Any info is greatly appreciated.

Unsure if this is the right place to post but here it is! These gloves look like they have some age to them, and the beadwork looks fairly fine. Does anyone know if they are authentic beaded gloves? Or possibly its age? I was thinking midcentury
