Item #949B- Vintage Harvey Era Navajo Turquoise Sun Symbols Stamped Sterling Silver Pin/Brooch
Vintage Navajo “Harvey Era” turquoise decorated sun symbols brooch. The silversmith has created an oblong silver brooch applying a slit across the center which alouds the artist to expand the opening. The artist applies a stamped full sun at both ends and continues to stamp repeating sunrise symbols on both the upper and lower sections of the split silver base. The artist then starts adding decoration by attaching a round cut and polished turquoise stone in center. The stone is set in a shallow smooth silver bezel wrapped with both twisted wire and repeat silver drops. To both sides of the stone setting the artist has mounted a large silver drop and wrapped a twisted wire scroll around it. The artist finishes the brooch by attaching a safety locking pin on the back.
