<p>[QUOTE="reader, post: 4271859, member: 255"]I understand that you didn’t ask for my opinion but my opinion is a bit different than Taupou’s. I have no clue who made your bracelet either and agree that it is not showing up in any of the reputable sources that I own but as I’ve stated on similar threads, I don’t think it matters. It’s a nice decorative piece and is not trying to be much more than that. It cannot be legally sold in the US as Native American, Indian etc. nor can it be given any tribal affiliation but IMO there is no issue in selling it in silver (and turquoise) jewelry (assuming that it does test as sterling and is turquoise which it appears to be) as Southwestern Sterling Turquoise Silver Petit Point Cuff Bracelet Snake Eye Center Signed HB whatever. Regardless of the maker it’s done in a southwestern style and will appeal to someone if priced competitively. I know that many love to research until the cows come home but not all pieces warrant that kind of research.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
