My first signed piece

This is the first piece of signed NA jewelry I ever bought…pendant on silver wire by Art Platero. Bought in the early 70’s. Could anyone tell me about Art and give me a value on it?

That’s really interesting. What is the brown? It kind of looks like a walnut shell.

It is a walnut shell…very popular in the 70’s.

So cool. Something else I hadn’t seen till this site; and I have seen quite a bit! I am familiar with the name Platero. Later if I have a chance to look it up I’ll try. I’m sure someone else will find something!

So I did a little googling…here is a screenshot of one short article. I’m so technologically challenged for the life of me


I can’t figure out how to do a link to an article. But this one was under Bischoff’s Galleries. It did have a picture of him also.

And I have no idea why that screenshot ended up in the middle of my text.
