Description

Vintage Navajo Sterling Silver & Turquoise Bolo Tie

This authentic Navajo bolo tie features a hand-stamped sterling silver slide set with a natural turquoise cabochon (12.93 mm x 10.47 mm) showcasing a vivid blue tone with earthy matrix veining. The rectangular slide is detailed with hand-stamped motifs and textured designs that highlight the artisan's craftsmanship.

The bolo is mounted on a 32-inch black braided leather cord, complemented by distinctive twisted metal tips (not sterling). The reverse of the slide features a vintage Bennett Pat. Pend. C31 clasp, a hallmark of quality in mid-century Navajo bolo ties. While the piece bears no visible maker’s mark, the slide has been tested and confirmed to be sterling silver.
