To me, “IDK” stands for I don’t know if this gentleman qualifies for this thread. His ring is clearly not Native made. This thread is really for celebrities wearing Southwestern Indian jewelry. As much as I love Roy Rogers (I even have his autograph), his western style bolo probably doesn’t qualify either. But do not be alarmed, I was able to include Roy in post #217 in October 2019. :slightly_smiling_face: :+1:

No comment on the Tiger King. :zipper_mouth_face: :grin:

Fixed it for you, @Ziacat. Hopefully the lion found a good home.

Thank you! It kind of choked me up to look at the poor thing in that little cage. I hope it found a good home too!

Kind of a funny story. I’m always joking around saying when I get to heaven I’m going to pet a lion. Well, a number of years ago my husband went to South Africa, and texted me saying, “sorry, but I beat you to it.” The group he was with visited a big cat sanctuary (the animals were treated well) and he literally got to pet a lion cub :rofl: and of course sent me pictures.

If you look at the one photo of Roy I posted above the color one. It has a very Native American pattern to his beaded belt.

I see what you’re saying, but that is a common Western style belt with sterling silver triangular adornments probably made by Edward Bohlin - the famous custom silver and saddle maker of the early Hollywood cowboys.

Boy you can zoom in on that a lot better than I. I’m kind of old and dumb when it comes to this computer stuff. I don’t have a smart phone, just a dumb one. I haven’t figured how to zoom in on photos with my old computer.
