Welcome back to my sales! This is nothing short of spectacular and it has been in my private collection for over 30 years . It is huge! It's sterling silver and the best turquoise you will ever see--deep, rich and with spectacular silver veining! It is very old--at least 1940's, probably older. It is marked FFIE C. ZUNI, underneath the bolo catch on the back. It is both a bolo and a pin . The design comprises two snakes that wind around the stones. T are 6 large turquoise pieces and each is prong-set in large prongs . The ZUNI stamping in different designs surrounds the entire edge. It measures 2" wide at the top and almost 3" in length . The lariat is stong and beautiful black leather/cowhide and the large handmade sterling tips (which measure 2" long) are also stamped and beautiful . The entire bolo, which slides and locks perfectly, measures about 38". This is for either gender and something to treasure forever!! I've started the auction very low.
