Sterling Silver & Turquoise Barrette
This Stunning Big barrette was made by Artist Martha Cayatineto. I don't know her Tribal affiliation, Iselta? It has a greenish turquoise stone set in a smooth bezel and is surrounded by twisted silver wire in the classic rope design. There's quite a bit of silver detailing including stampwork. The silver on the barrette all has a darker satin finish to it that gives it a vintage look.
It measures a very slightly bowed 2 5/8" long by 1 1/2" at it's widest point.
It is marked sterling and signed. weight: 23 grams on my scale. I placed a quarter there for scale.
Sure to make a Fine addition to any collection, or a great gift! Please note: Pictures are enlarged to show detail, remember everything looks bigger on line :)
