Hopi Guildcraft mark?

Hi. I have examined the hallmarks in Wright’s Hopi Silver reference book and see there are several varied guild marks. This one seems a little different. On the right side it looks like an arrow and part of another image, perhaps indicating a particular artisan. Maybe I missed it in the reference book. Any ideas or help? Thanks much.

Thanks Steve. I see that now in my book as well.

Can we see the front of the bracelet? Browns Trading has a bracelet by Wallie Sekayumptewa that shows two hallmarks for him, a sunface and arrows. The sunface isn’t exactly the match with yours, but we know those vary, and the arrows sort of look like what yours has.

It’s a bola tie slide.

Yeah, sorry for any confusion–not work by the artist I had mentioned.

No worries. Appreciate the suggestion.

I have something with this mark, I think it’s Gene Pooyouma

A little surprised at the dates. These were purchased after a 2011 house fire. Sitting in inventory somewhere!
