I do believe in mixing it up! No purist here!
Plenty here in S CA. Many of our town’s events celebrate our western history. Our stables are always full. I’m off to volunteer at our local art...
We both wear them here in the SW US. I wear a Zuni sunface bolo as a lariat.
Speechless…absolutely tragic and horrifying…
Absolutely horrific scenario but thankfully I’ve never heard of any issues and the last piece I gave was to a guy that was markered on the outside...
That’s awful. Honestly never considered that. I just take stuff to the parks and missions.
I do that but we have tons of homeless in my city. I personally have issues with contributing to landfills IF something can be of use to someone.
That one is fake but will share that I’ve done lots of repairs on my own genuine duffles over the years. Stitches do break and rivets do pull out.
These estate and garage sale people make me nuts. They just don’t care who they rip. I see fake LV out there all the time priced in the hundreds....
Expert here but definitely do whatever makes you comfortable re posting on other sites. Made in France LV never used nickel findings and the...
I’m one that resizes. Just took a link out of a 60’s Antonio Pineda moonstone bracelet. Wish I could have taken out 2 for earrings but 1 did it....
Respectfully, neither hold personal interest for me but agree your pic is the finer piece. Meanwhile I too would have picked up the first at the...
No personal interest in it but meant that I think it’s legit and NA. I don’t collect newer NA but at the right price I think it’s salable.
Really nice. Skimmed my older Hougart’s and didn’t find it but maybe AJ will. I’d buy it as 90s forward Navajo.
Like it too…congrats. My opinion is that a frame is part of the history of the piece so unless it’s REALLY trashed (yours is fine IMO) or hideous...
Curious why? I definitely think it’s Navajo and if it isn’t, it’s Anglo done in pretty classic 80s forward Navajo style. I’d bet the ranch that...
I don’t think it matters as nothing definitive is coming up under any of the possibilities. You have plenty of keywords between turquoise, spiny...
I’m still thinking haircalf with a shearling lining.
Wonder if it could be goat w a shearling lining.
Far more likely IMO to be brindle hair calf than pony skin. One is common-it’s literally cow leather except the hair isn’t removed. The other will...
