Zuni squash blossom value

3.77oz squash blossom from 1950’s or 1960’s. Can you give an opinion on value?

Lovely squash blossom. I’m thinking those are handmade beads, but I’m not 100% sure. It definitely has a Zuni look. I’m sorry, even though it says value at the top, most of us on here are not appraisers, so we’re not comfortable with giving a $ value. There might be a couple members that could help you further; hopefully they will chime in. But as has been suggested to other posters, your best bet may be to compare similar items online, and see what they actually sell for.

Does it have a hallmark (I don’t see one, just asking to make sure)? I’m seeing some etched letters, but they look like a possible trader/seller’s code.

I don’t see any hallmarks. I have seen such a range of prices on these that it’s hard to really determine value. I guess the value is whatever someone will pay! I understand that early pieces did not have any hallmarks.
