Vintage Navajo Sterling Silver Ring -Malachite Size 12
Weight 26.39 Grams. Old Pawn Jewelry dates from the early 1900s to the 1970s. Most of it is not signed because it wasn’t the Native American tradition to sign the pieces they crafted. Most of the pieces have turquoise that you can’t get anymore because the mines have closed. Also, the red and orange coral is rare because of the coral bleaching which is happening today. Many of these pieces were pawned. The Indian would pawn his jewelry with the shop that would hold it and charge interest until he could relaim it. Dead pawn are the pieces that were never retrieved. Most of these pawn shops and trading posts are now closed. We guarantee all of our Native American Indian items to be AUTHENTIC American Indian traditional arts.

The best way to get a good fit is to measure a cuff bracelet you already have that fits you well and look for a bracelet with those dimensions. If you don’t have a cuff bracelet to use for comparison, then measure your wrist where you want to wear the bracelet. Use a half inch wide strip of paper and wrap it around your wrist. Be sure that it completes its circumference over your wrist bone and is in comfortable contact with your skin the whole way around. Mark the paper where it begins to overlap with the start, lay it out flat, and measure from the start to the mark. This is your proper wrist circumference. Your satisfaction is our priority.
