This piece is unsigned—a common practice from the late 1800s through the trading-post era and into the 1970s, before artist attribution became more widespread. While no formal provenance documentation is available, the craftsmanship, materials, design, and distinctive stylistic markers have been informally identified by an expert in Native American jewelry as Navajo. At Silver Cactus Jewelry, we are committed to honoring cultural integrity and accurately representing indigenous art. Free returns and refunds are available within 30 days of the purchase date in the unlikely event of any concerns regarding the origin.
