Description: A better than average, handmade bracelet from the latter part of the Fred Harvey Era. It features a gorgeous, light blue turquoise stone surrounded by hand crafted silver work. Tested as sterling silver. The Fred Harvey Era refers to a time frame from about the mid 1950s back to around the turn of the last century. Tourist bought Native Jewelry and other items while traveling by Rail and later by Highway. This old bracelet is from that era. It was tested as being either sterling (.925) or at least coin (.900) silver.

Maker: Most likely Navajo or Pueblo, but there is not maker's mark (as was common of Native Style jewelry from this era).

Approx. Age: Vintage (Circa 1940s - 50s).

Size: Inside circumference measures 5-1/2" plus there is just over a 7/8" gap (making this bracelet fit about a 6-3/8" wrist). It is about 1-3/4" wide across the face and weighs 62.4 g.

Condition: Vintage, good for its age, normal wear expected.
