Navajo Sterling Silver Bolo Tie with Turquoise & Coral, Signed RVT
Finely handcrafted Navajo sterling silver bolo tie, signed RVT and marked Sterling, featuring a bezel-set turquoise cabochon framed by four bezel-set red coral stones. The stones are set within a hand-stamped and rope-twist silver surround, accented with applied bead and leaf motifs. A friction slide secures the bolo on a black braided leather cord with sterling silver tips.
This piece exemplifies classic Navajo silversmithing, combining traditional design elements with carefully balanced color and form. The turquoise and coral pairing—long regarded in Navajo culture as representing the harmony of sky and earth—creates a visually striking and symbolically resonant composition. A refined work of Native American artistry suitable for both wear and collection.
Condition:
Good condition with light surface wear and tarnish consistent with age. Stones are secure in their settings; cord and friction slide function properly. Polishing has been left to the buyer’s discretion to preserve the natural patina.
