Message:: [QUOTE="LoveTheHunt!, post: 10629806, member: 8191"]I have 2 or 3 pieces I'd like to share and gain information about, but I'll split them into different threads for clarity's sake.  Here is a Sterling Silver Brooch with a bail on a sleeve over the pin, to turn it into a pendant. (I've never seen that one, before. Both of the brooches I'll be sharing have them.)  This one has 3 different stones in different shapes on the front. It is 2-1/4" long x 1-1/4" wide.  The back is signed "Bright Bear" along with "STERLING"  Via Google image search, I found an pendant that clearly has the same "Bright Bear" mark, but no other info on the maker... Elsewhere on the 'net I saw some reference that suggested a Native American/Navajo artisan, but I found no reliable confirmation of that.  Does anyone here have any info on this mark? Would you call this style?  How about the stones? It has a candy corn shaped pink stone with some lines running through it, a turquoise color ring with dark lattice, and a red coral? cab at the center.[ATTACH=full]532263[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]532264[/ATTACH] Again, I appreciate any and all comments from the knowledgeable people here![/QUOTE]
