Statement silver ring and earrings, please help identify marks!

Hello everyone,
These two beauties just arrived, they look amazing, need a thorough clean though lol.
The earrings were a bit pricey, hopefully someone can identify the maker.
I wonder if anyone can identify the marks.
Thank you.
Kind regards,

I've got that ring with tigers' eye, NA in style, can't remember the maker. Earrings are Mexican.

 

I have one with turquoises, from a different maker. Mine is Navajo, ca 1978, a well known maker, can't remember who though.

Don't have much time now, I'll look up Simona's mark later.

Maybe someone can tweak the Mexican mark, the earrings?

 

Any chance for a closer photo of the mark on the earrings? I see 925 in the center. If another picture isn't an option, can you share what if anything you can read in the circle?

Nice pair!

 

I don't know, the closed one I could find for the mark on the ring is Terrance Lomayestewa, Hopi, see here:

You will have to do research to verify that.

 

It looks a bit like the mark, but Terrance Lomayestewa is known for classic Hopi overlay work, silver, no stones.
The style of the ring is Navajo, and the maker of mine is Navajo too. So I wonder if it could be the mark of Herbert Taylor, Navajo. The time frame, he lived from 1951-1996, fits with the approx. date of my ring.

Where the HELL have I put mine.

 

Lol

 

I looked at Terrance, does not look like it…the mark is different.
I will keep looking.

 

Thank you,
I kept looking, but it seems slightly different, found few on Eatsy, the H mark sides are straight and longer for Herbert Taylor….
I am happy with being identified as Native American, Navajo…
Just realised how that there are so many makers, I had no idea.
I have some necklaces, don’t know if they are real Navajo, will post them soon.
I cleaned the earrings, they look amazing, they need a certain posture lol to walk, they are soo heavy lol.
Xx

 

Straight back, head held high, find your centre, etc etc.

Herbert Taylor's marks differ. Some of them even look like the Batman sign.

 

Here there are



I can’t make any word, not even 925, I see 325 lol

 

Difficult to make out, but I think they just say 'hecho en Mexico', which simply means 'made in Mexico'. In the centre 925.

 

To me, the mark on the ring looks like that of Atkinson Trading Co with the top of the mark poorly stamped. Shown quite a ways down on this page from art-amerindien.com http://www.art-amerindien.com/hallmarks/a-indian-native-american-jewelry-marks.htm

 

Loks like that could be it. So you would have to research if they bought from Native artists only or not.
I can't find the mark, but my brain doesn't like too many different images, too much information in one go.

 

Yes, thank you so much, I can see it as well, the top bit is worn off.
Great, delighted to have a name!
