Hi everyone I have a big turquoise necklace that I believe may be Bisbee? not sure…it has what looks to me like three rain clouds for the makers mark and sterling below that…I have been trying to find a matching cap for it for close to 4 years to have it repaired…I think I may never find a match…when I bought the piece it the old gal that had it said it was Navajo…Im thinking maybe zuni because of the mark…any help would be much appreciated 
keep checking does anyone have any ideas on this
I believe these marks tend to be decorative stamps, not hallmarks.
I can’t imagine the 3 rain clouds are decorative. They are so small, just above the “sterling” stamp. They almost have to be a hallmark. Here are a few more. Someone must know the artist!
I would agree with Bigbree on this being decorative. The number of different necklaces helps make the case with the styles being so diverse.

I wouldn’t call this Bisbee. Bisbee Turquoises is mostly known for it’s blue blue color. The silver bead you are looking to replace is a common import trade item. It’s possible you may have both end cone beads replaced if you want them to match perfectly.

Thunderbird Jewelry Supply carries very inexpensive sterling findings for this exact type of project. Search for “sterling cone” on their site.
