These are made from some sort of U.S. silver coin, I can see visible letters near the inside rims. However I’ve spent hours trying to identify the maker of these earrings. I’ve used reverse image search, ChatGPT, scrolling through names that start with “A” to see if any look familiar. I found 2 that looked similar but they were dead ends.
Anyways the sign/shape that’s on the other earring, to me it looks familiar! So if anybody can look at the photos and suggest any information, that would be greatly appreciated
Yes I did already post it, and it got ZERO answers, but ONE truly special person did reply. (I am extremely grateful to that one person, TY so much. They really tried, and took time to provide me with something)
I just figured since it got close to nothing in terms of engagement, that I posted at a bad time and nobody saw it. Idk just wanted some fresh eyes on it
Most of us don’t reply if we have nothing to add, and you received a very good response from another member, so I for one didn’t feel the need to be repetitive. I do agree they don’t necessarily look Native made, but they are lovely earrings. For future reference, bumping your thread by adding a new post to it will make it show at the top of the category rather than starting a brand new thread.
Often we never find out who made a piece. I have quite a few pieces of Native made jewelry (I know they are Native made due to the shops/trading posts that I purchased them from) that have no hallmark, or one I couldn’t find, but I love them all anyway. A number of members here have some great hallmark books, and there are some online sites, so if the mark is not there it may remain a mystery, although maybe someone will someday find it.
