IMPORTANT: This is authentic Native American Indian handmade, on the Indian reservation, in New Mexico U. Please note: I have nothing against the foreign imports from the Philippines, China or Mexico (they are inexpensive and serve a purpose as cheap “alternatives” but if you want an authentic Native American Indian handicraft they are considerably more expensive than their “foreign counterparts”). OOPS: I just noticed the horrendous lighting in photo #1 (my MAIN photo). The “glare” of the lighting “washed out” the HAND-ETCHING details on the bear fetishes. Please refer to PHOTO #4 to see all of the painstaking HAND-ETCHING. ZUNI Native American Indian DILBERT GASPER handcrafted in NEW MEXICO, U. Please see my photo for the artist’s hallmark. Please note: This is a pre-owned item and I do not know if DILBERT GASPER is still living. Very charming HAND-CARVED, HANDMADE BEARS with cute little KACHINA FACES sitting on them. The little kachina faces feature TURQUOISE, MOTHER-OF-PEARL SEASHELL, RED CORAL and BLACK ONYX. Please study all of my photos. All fetishes meticulously painstakingly HAND-CARVED from what appears to be black marble or black onyx stone. Please note there is also HAND-ETCHING. Very-labor intensive for the artist. PLEASE NOTE: I have showed you BOTH sides of all of the fetishes. Please see ALL photos. Fetishes are strung with genuine natural TURQUOISE “nuggets”. There are sterling silver cones and clasp. Circa: Unknown but in very nice PRE-OWNED condition. I have carefully studied the fetishes (and entire necklace and earrings) and I can find no defects or damage. Necklace: 25 long – suitable for most male and female necklines. Weight: Approximately: 130 grams. Bottom BEAR fetish: 2″ x 1 1/8″ Side Bears: 1 1/2″ x 1″ All measurements approximate and to the best of my ability (I’m elderly with poor vision). Thank you very much for your understanding. Item: precious treasures drawer #1. This item is in the category “Jewelry & Watches\Ethnic, Regional & Tribal\Necklaces & Pendants”. The seller is “precious-treasures-losangeles” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.

Rare Native American Silver Fetish Animal And Bird Necklace Heavy 116 G
Rare Native American Silver Fetish Animal And Bird Necklace Heavy 116 Grams. Here we have a flash from the past–a silver bead necklace with silver fetish beads of animals such as turtles, birds, badgers, fox and fish all interspersed among the silver tubular heishi, plus small round silver beads capping each animal. That design of liquid silver mixed with animal fetishes–it smacks of the 1970s! The fetishes are mold cast, and heavy. Since there are no sterling stamps–casting generally does not allow for a stamp–I did acid test one of the fetishes in an obscure underside of the long tail (since acid testing can leave a small lighter dot) and it did test positive for sterling silver. They have no hallmark, so while we can’t say for certain that they are Native American, we believe they are Zuni. The necklace is long at 34 total length end to end, and each of the 21 animal fetishes ranges from 3/4″ long to 1-1/4″ long. They are absolutely adorable and, again, have weight to them. A whopping 4 + ounces total or 115 grams. The piece is threaded on wire and ends with a hook and eye. The silver has a beautiful, kind of dark patina, and if you prefer I will be happy to give it a light polish. Very rare and hard to find extremely heavy great quality please see photos closely for condition and thanks for looking.

Rare Old Leekya Deyuse Zuni Silver Carved Bear Fetish Turquoise Cuff Bracelet
Rare Old Leekya Deyuse Zuni Silver Carved Bear Fetish Turquoise Cuff Bracelet. The fetish appears to be a profile of a bear on its side with head up, but it could be another animal (not his typical frog). The bracelet appears to be sand cast, but again, I’m not an expert. I could go on and on (as many who sell Leekya items do) and sing the praises of Old Man Leekya Deyuse and tell you why his stuff is so important in Zuni history, but I imagine if you are looking at this listing, you already know all about him, and appreciate his work, so I’ll spare the lesson. As for “provenance, ” I have nothing solid in writing as to the original owner, or the bracelet’s exact age. That being said, I have done a lot of research on Leekya Deyuse, and have also consulted with knowledgeable experts / dealers from at least four reputable galleries out West, as well as two Tribal Arts appraisers, who have seen these photos and verified that this is the real deal–and that the center carving was done by Leekya. Most of Leekya Deyuse’s pieces are with museums or private collectors, and few and far between are ever for sale. I have had a few offers on it, but wish to put it out there for the general public so that more collectors can see it. If you are a collector of Leekya’s work, you will be able to make your determination from the very thorough photos. If you need more photos, just ask. The bracelet is not at all flexible. It measures 5 5/8″ around the inside, with a 1 1/8″ gap. It is 2″ wide at the center, and 3/4″ wide at the ends. It weighs 4.2 ounces (about 120 grams). NOTE: I feel very comfortable in guaranteeing this to be a Leekya piece. PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THE ITEMS I SELL ARE “VINTAGE” OR ESTATE ITEMS, AND THEREFORE ARE NOT NEW–SO PLEASE EXPECT NORMAL WEAR. I WILL DO MY BEST TO DESCRIBE ANY DEFECTS/FLAWS IN THE ITEM. PLEASE VIEW THE PHOTOS CAREFULLY AS THE SUPERSIZED PHOTOS ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE LISTING. I CANNOT END AUCTIONS EARLY, AND PLEASE DO NOT MAKE AN OFFER. I sell on consignment for jewelers who set the prices on my items. My pricing is UP FRONT–(not inflated just so I can lower)–and I price as low as possible, with no “wiggle room”–in order to meet my consignor’s net price. THANKS FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING. Please WAIT FOR THE INVOICE! Thanks for your understanding. Auctiva offers Free Image Hosting and Editing. Auctiva gets you noticed!
