Help with hallmark identification malachite bolo tie

New member here, hopefully I have figured out how to appropriately use this forum.

This bolo tie has a large malachite stone set in sterling silver with matching aiguillettes. Looks to be a one of a kind. Was purchased sometime in the 80’s or 90s. Does it look like an AR or an AP?
Appreciate help with this.

@LindaSue Hi & Welcome. That’s a very nice malachite bolo tie. In my opinion, the letters look like AP or PA. Some Members have used Google Lens to help identify hallmarks. You may want to consider trying that.

Thank you! I started with Google lens, no luck. But i did find a very similar piece made by Alice Platero, Navajo silversmith. Anyone here familiar with her work?
