    komokwa The Truth is out there...!

    I'm kinda showing it in all it's glory & rough & tumble for Charlie.....but any and all comments are welcomed ....:):):):)
    Here's what I know........;)
    Can't remember where it came from.....likely eBay in the 90's..
    It's approx 2 inches by 7 inches....with a 1 1/2 inch opening.
    Marked J H sterling.....for Navajo artist James Harrison......reasonably well known..

    I think Kingman Turquoise ...
    nice old coral....thick branch coral maybe..... not dyed..
    & the black rounds.....feel soft on my teeth...like plastic.....and they are mostly identical ..??? Jet ?? Vinyl ??

    I bought it as a Chiefs Bracelet...but that and $ 6.50 will get you a latte !!!!

    The Turq has some silver metal & opaque stone in it.....but that doesn't detract from the rich robins egg blue !!!:happy::happy:

    I have not polished it....in 4 ever !!!

    Interesting that there is no flowery metal work......just gems ...??

    It's either really ugly...or stunning......I haven't decided yet !!!!

    Jewelry ain't my bag, but it certainly has enough chunky stone-bling to be worthy of a Chief!

    I kinda dig it, komo :)

    Fantastic piece. I love how the stones have been allowed to speak rather than the silverwork.

    The bulky cuff look good on men, but for myself, it would weigh my entire arm down! I can barely haul my small purse around some days out!
