Welcome.

I\'m offering a wonderful bracelet which I\'m attributing to Juan Qualo; he was the older brother of Elliot Qualo. It is a famous piece, in the Kennedy Museum.

This is a later piece but not as old as his pieces that included deer antler. All the stones in this bracelet were hand cut and buffed and set. They are very fine stones, with strong colors. The use of the purple shell on the body instead of the deer antler is very effective and striking. He made this bracelet and also the matching ring which I have elsewhere in the store of very clean bright blue turquoise, clean blood red coral, jet, abalone in green, and purple shell, and yellow mother of pearl. It\'s inlaid in channel inlay and dot inlay and the inlay is superb. He also used his decorative stamping at the top but not at the bottom as in the earlier pieces he made. I am offering separately one of his pins made with the deer antler and also a ring that matches this bracelet. The are are two pictures above that show the ring and one that also shows the deer antler pin. It would be great to have all three and if you\'d like them I\'ll try to help.

The bracelet measures internally end to end, for silver alone, 5-3/8\", the gap is 1-1/2\", total length 6-5/8\" It is flexible and the gap can be made smaller or larger. The width is 1-3/4\" at the center, tapering to 1/4 at the terminals for comfort. Weight is 33.3 grams. It is typical of those times that it wasn\'t signed nor marked for silver content but it\'s at least coin at .900 and probably sterling silver at .925. The condition is excellent vintage, wearable and collectible. It\'s stunning!

It\'s literally a museum piece and it\'s highly collectible. This is a delightful bracelet.

Attributions on many of the old pieces of Native American jewelry are sometimes a moving target. All the books have errors, so in addition to counterchecking, I have developed some expertise over the years and I do care about getting it right, so as more information comes to light I update my listings and also get in touch with my previous buyers, to inform them of any changes in attributions. I am sincerely committed to ongoing accuracy.

I am sorry to say I can no longer recommend ATADA nor buying from their members with perhaps one exception, and retract my previous endorsement of the group.

I request payment by PayPal in three days, but planned in advance of purchase, alternate payment methods and time payments can be arranged.

Everything I sell comes from my personal collection or is something that I would include in my personal collection. Most pieces are museum worthy and gallery suitable, sold to you at great pricing. I vet every item carefully for quality and condition, and offer you the best. I want you to be able to rely on me for top quality, superb items that are often unique and rare examples of old antique vintage southwest, indian, native american and fine gold and gemstones, whether you\'re starting a collection or adding to one, or want something great to wear or gift. My goal is that all my buyers are delighted, that my special pieces find the right homes.
