You will love this!!! San Felipe Native American Tribe/Nation LIZARD Ring. Hallmarked by San Felipe Indian JACOB TRONCOSA (please see photos for hallmark). HUMONGOUS, BOLD and BEAUTIFUL, PAINSTAKINGLY ALL HANDMADE. Features 2 handcrafted lizards, feathers and “dewdrops” (raindrops). Please note: sterling silver is tarnishing but condition is PERFECT (no damage, no defects). Genuine natural turquoise stone from the #8 “Old Edgar” mine in Lander county in Carlin, Nevada. This fabulous mine was completed depleted in 1961 and CLOSED at that time. This magnificent extremely rare stone is GIGANTIC. See all ring measurements below.

Please note: This is a very WIDE band (usually WIDE bands fit more snugly on the finger compared to thin bands – I would say this fits more like size 8 due to wide band but it actually measures 8 1/4 on my jeweler’s ring mandrel). I have given you accurate RING MANDREL measurement. WEIGHT: Oops, battery just died on my jeweler’s scale. I will get back to you promptly, but fair warning, THIS IS EXTREMELY HEAVY.

Jacob Halloo – Zuni. Sterling Silver, Turquoise, Jet, Coral, and Mother of Pearl. Belt Buckle and Bolo Tie Set! 3.0″ X 2.0″ (will accept a belt of up to 1.5). 48.9 grams = 1.57 Troy ounces. Bolo Tie w/ New Black Braided Leather Bolo Cord and Fancy Tips. 1.76″ X 1.4″. Fancy Sterling Tips 2.25 length. Lanyard length is 20″ X 2 = 40″. 33.0 grams = 1.06 Troy ounces. (all measurement are approximate). Zuni Jacob “Jake” Halloo Belt Buckle and Bolo Tie Set. This wonderful Belt Buckle and Bolo Tie Set was made by the famous and talented Zuni artist Jake Halloo. He became active in producing jewelry from the 1950’s. Husband of Lola Pinto Halloo, he is also the father of Jake Livingston and uncle of Dennis Edaakie. His daughter Rolanda makes jewelry of a similar theme, but hers have distinctive bird beaks that are radically bent downwards and backwards at the tips of the bird beaks. You may not be surprised to hear that Lolita Natachu and Nancy Laconsello also picked up some stylistic themes from their teacher Jake. This wild bird is variously described as a Gooney Bird (as in Albatross), Hopi Bird, and even as a Thunderbird. I’m not entirely comfortable with any of those descriptions. I’m a big fan of Joan Miro, the Spanish artist. Miro died in 1983. I like to imagine that Jake Halloo liked Miro’s work. These old pieces are Not stamped on the reverse side of both the Buckle and Bolo pendant with a hallmark. The Fancy tips are also Sterling Silver. I have found no defects like cracked or loose shells, noticeable scratches, etc. In the Belt, Bolo pendant, or the Bolo Tips. I have found no imperfections in the Mother of Pearl shells or stones. The inlay is tight and masterful! Please, look at the pictures carefully. The braided black leather bolo cord is New and it still a bit stiff. The Sterling Silver all has a heavy tarnish… The bolo tie clasp helps us date the set as being from this period and perhaps about half a century old. By the way, I’ve traded hundreds of bolos with Bennett clasps and this is the first one that I can remember seeing with this smaller manufacturers name stamped on the clasp. This set has been not been abused and is in quite remarkable condition for an old Buckle and Bolo set. I believe that you will be pleased! It is quite rare, and it is rare for me to say that. The workmanship is exceptional and fine. The Buckle and Bolo feature a stone on stone inlay (overlay-inlay) pattern of several Stone, Coral, and Shell color varieties. The Buckle and Bolo are each built up on a Sterling Silver base that has numerous pieces of these shells and stones set tightly into the intricate Sterling Silver cut out top frame form. I love the colors chosen and the composition of the shells, coral, and stone that creates such a radiant and intriguing pattern. You might be willing to bet that the surface has offset angles. Funny, it looks that way, but it is in fact extremely smooth when you run your finger across the slightly convex surface of the front. This is a highly desirable and magical museum quality jewelry set. This amazing Belt Buckle and Bolo Tie is full of character and may be immediately recognized by many people as quality collectible Native jewelry. When you take a look at the pictures, please inspect the bolo pendant and buckle carefully for the fine detail in both design and execution.
