JOHN DELVIN Southwestern Native American Turquoise Sterling Silver Pin / Brooch

  

We may not always be available on weekends and/or holidays, but we will respond to your message, in the order it was received, when we return to the office. Beautiful Southwestern Native American Indian high-grade turquoise sterling silver pin or brooch, stamped STERLING, and hallmarked D by Navajo artist JOHN DELVIN. John is mostly famous for his spiny oyster cabochons, although his stone and silver work are just as impressive.

In the 1980s, along with other silversmiths, John formed "Teme", also known as Sunburst Handcraft Inc. A company that produces handmade Native American jewelry, located in Gallup, New Mexico. This pendant showcases a gorgeous blue-green stone with a busy copper matrix, set in a smooth bezel, and framed by a hand-cut filed border. This piece weighs approximately 16.5 grams, and it's about 1 7/8" wide by 7/8" tall.

Exceptional stone and silver work. Thank you for supporting authentic Native American art. Please measure your wrist, decolletage, finger, and waist, or use an old bracelet, necklace, bolo tie, belt, and so on, to determine your size. All items in our store are preowned, and in vintage-used condition. Minor wear, light surface scratches, and other common conditions in used items should be expected. Please allow for some variation in color. We attempt to capture the actual color of the stones/shells to the best of our ability, but cameras, lighting, and monitors may not portray the exact color. When the color in the photos is significantly different from the original, we will add that information to "additional notes" at the bottom of the listing.
