MAKER: Hallmarked WOLF ROBE (stamped). "Chief Wolf Robe Hunt was a Native American painter, illustrator, silversmith and sculptor of the Acoma nation. He was born at the Acoma Pueblo in New Mexico in 1905. His family eventually left the Pueblo to travel with a Wild West show. After his marriage he settled in Tulsa, Oklahoma where he owned a shop on 11th Street (Route 66) and sold the silver jewelry he made to tourists and Tulsans alike. After the freeways caused traffic to bypass his shop, he opened a trading Post in Catoosa, Oklahoma across the highway from the Blue Whale water structure. There he continued selling his jewelry until his death in 1977." Taken from Ask Art.com.
