Vintage Navajo Fred Harvey Style Turquoise Silver Pin Brooch Sunburst Rare

  
This is a stunning example of Mid-Century Southwestern artistry. A vintage Navajo-style bar brooch, this piece exemplifies the "Fred Harvey Era" aesthetic-jewelry crafted for travelers along the Santa Fe Railroad.

It features a beautiful, natural turquoise cabochon set in a traditional twisted-wire bezel, flanked by intricate hand-stamped sunburst and fan motifs. Style: Traditional Southwestern / Fred Harvey Era. Motifs: Hand-stamped sunbursts, fluted fans, and scalloped edges on a split-shank bar design. Gemstone: Genuine oval Turquoise with a vibrant sky-blue color and a light natural matrix. Craftsmanship: Hand-stamped and hand-assembled with a beautiful aged patina.

Closure: Features a classic rolling C-clasp, secure and in perfect working order. Consistent with coin silver or sterling common for this era. Measurements: Approximately 2.5 inches in length. The silver has a gorgeous dark patina in the recessed areas which highlights the stamp work.

I have left the original patina intact for collectors. Whether you are a collector of Native American history or looking for a unique statement piece for a lapel, scarf, or hat, this brooch offers timeless Southwestern charm.
