Absolutely marvelous, @Bmpdvm. I love the stones and bezels, and it looks heavy, too.

@Bmpdvm That’s a fabulous naja! I luv the size, design, & turquoise. I’m all about the vintage jewelry. Any idea of its age? It looks 1940s, imo.

I agree with your thoughts @Patina . I just love the retro look in jewelry, and since Wolf Robe was born in 1905 and active during the 1940s, that’s a good guess

Beautiful, and the stones are gorgeous. We’ve discussed that artist before on the forum, so I was a little bit familiar with him.

Thanks Zia…I’ll do a search. I don’t have the time to read a lot of posts. I typically only read and contribute to threads that pike my interest, so I miss a lot! Or it could have been when I was out of town for an extended time. But it’s amazing how much information is on this forum

Wolf Robe Hunt, yes I’ve definitely heard of him, and before he was discussed on the forum. Pretty sure he’s in some of my books, but I forget which.
@Bmpdvm I LOVE that naja. Fabulous and unique, and diamond and triangular cut stones are my favorite, with square or rectangular a close second. Great find! Which dealer did you get it from?

Found my reference: Reassessing Hallmarks of Native Southwest Jewelry by Pat and Kim Messier. I had a feeling it was in this one.
*ETA IDK why the pics are posting like this; I’ve never seen this on the forum before

Too cool! Thanks OO! I hadn’t looked at this book for some time, but that picture seems familiar. I love the cover on this book, the Liz Wallace small hammered silver bowl with turquoise around the rim is just luscious!
The way the pictures are posted is different, but OK. Did you upload the pictures as a group or individually. IDK…May make a difference??
