I agree that anything can and probably is copied but the bottom line is that the Indian Arts and Crafts Act of 1990 is very specific about...
I don’t know either (I only occasionally follow the snake pieces) but if so those elements weren’t used with traditional Navajo leaf work in a...
I’ve seen really dumb too but I’ve also seen brilliant counterfeits.
Without question that ring was made to confuse but is probably legal as it has the correct Mexican stamps and as already stated, the term Navajo...
It’s definitely genuine turquoise and I agree that it’s Navajo but if selling it cannot be listed as Navajo according to US law since the artist...
Timely lol. Just skimmed. In car (not driving). Amazingly quality and reputation well deserved IMO.
Thats why I suggested the fine jewelry dept at Sotheby’s but any estimate is still subject to physical inspection but they’ll definitely have...
Interesting to me that Cartier’s 14K work is virtually unknown. Out of curiosity I called a friend who was a boutique manager in the 80s. His...
I think I’d still send a photo to Sotheby’s which will authenticate and give a value if they’re interested which they will be in my opinion if...
Know that isn’t true. They will take in any piece left and will then advise the owner after of cost and whether they can work on the piece. Again,...
I like them. Lidded boxes are made from them too.
LOL it probably is the best advice but Cartier is known for never authenticating even when they take pieces in. There are always exceptions....
In theory I agree but other reputable boards have stated that they will take pieces in, will not authenticate and have returned fake watches...
You could try authenticate4u for $7.50. They do Cartier but I don’t know if their experts are versed on vintage pieces.They have a Facebook page...
For starters it probably would have been obvious from the gold color had it been stamped 18K. I can almost always tell by sight. That bracelet was...
❤️❤️❤️
Also, you can certainly call them but I sure wouldn’t bring the piece into them as I don’t know if they confiscate counterfeits which is what I...
May I be wrong but I wouldn’t touch it. I own the Trinity ring and the Love bracelet and know of no 14k versions on that piece.Cartier works in...
IMO you have an unattributed most likely Navajo ring. The only HR listed in Hougart’s is the artist already discussed who is not the artist of...
Agree that your bag is crocodile as opposed to alligator. I can see 70s/80s from that clasp although all you need is “vintage”. What you do need...
