NAVAJO NATIVE AMERICAN RARE STERLING BOX ROYSTON TURQUOISE 81.9 gr signed M &CM
This little box is a heavy 81.9 grams. A rare Navajo or Hopi box. Native Americans rarely made boxes and they rarely come up for sale. Please see pictures for signatures. Signed in script and block M although I have not been able to trace the maker. It also has a star imprint on the right dome. The left dome has been scored by the artist. The leaf closure leads me to believe it may be from the 50s or 70s when leafs were popular. 2&5/8″ across, 2″ from hinge to tip of leaf & 1 deep from top of cabochon. Royston Turquoise stone is 3/4 ” long & 1/2 ” wide. Any imperfections are due only to the glare. Small surface scratches due to age. Closes and opens nicely. Please watch for my other listings. I have priced this lovely box low to sell. Thank you for looking. This item is in the category “Jewelry & Watches\Ethnic, Regional & Tribal\Bracelets & Charms”. The seller is “kathyediablo” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
