Welcome to the forum. I can start by saying your bolo is in the form of a Hopi Deer Kachina. Please tell us more about how and/or where you acquired it and if it has a hallmark or any other stamps. This information will help us in determining its origin and possibly the artist who created it.
My father lived south of Tucson and went to the gem show every year, I think that’s where he got most all of his bolos, he had a big collection. I included 2 pictures of writing I found on it. Other than that I don’t have any other info
Thank you so much!
It says Philippines right on the hang tag, unfortunately (or fortunately, in that it can’t deceive anyone now). Thus, not Native American made but instead an import.
That’s crazy! I have never seen a tag or stamp on look-a-like jewelry before. Is that common?
I’m not sure if it has much value other than its worth in silver. You might search on ebay and look at what Native American style jewelry, or southwestern jewelry is going for. Basically those are words that people use for jewelry in this style that is not made by Native Americans.
