Good Morning All, I hope everyone is well :grinning_face: Just wanted to give a quick update. I did hear from Pat & Kim Messier and they basically said that Zuni jewelry isn’t their strong suit and they didn’t feel comfortable making an attribution without any hallmarks, which is completely understandable and I really appreciate them for taking a look at it :smiley: I haven’t heard back from anyone else.

As for tightening the stones, I did contact Jason and I didn’t know he nolonger worked at Perry Null. My apologies for that. He did provide me with their information to contact them for the work and advised that I insure it because it’s a very valuable piece. I think I’m just gonna wait until my vacation to the area and get it done in person. The post office hasn’t been that great for me lately. Too many lost items and very little communication or help in finding them.

Thanks so much to all for your kind words. Have a great day! :grin:

Thanks for the update @CyanideRose18!

They’re both such wonderful resources, and I’m glad you were able to get in touch with them. Their honesty is admirable and much more desirable than providing (potentially) misleading info. :+1:

I know I mentioned that Nila Brown is responsive, and she has been, but there have also been times that I’ve never heard back. I just chalked it up to her being busy and/or my inquiry being lost amongst the maelstrom.

A very wise decision!

Absolutely agree :smiley: We all have lives and family. My business just picked up out of nowhere, so I’m sure theirs has too :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I really appreciate all the help and knowledge I have received here. As well as seeing some of the most amazing jewelry and other collectibles. I’ll definitely be bugging everyone with more of my finds again real soon :laughing:

Thanks so much @Ziacat He is a lil’ miracle. You fall in love with your kids when they are born but being a “GeGe” it’s just something completely different. It’s hard to explain but I wouldn’t trade it for the world :smile:
