[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 268115, member: 301"][ATTACH=full]84497[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]84498[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]84499[/ATTACH] The ring and mark have this on line comment.... " I recently purchased this ring at an auction. I thought that the hallmark looked familiar, but couldn't place it. It surely must be one of the Begay's, I thought. Also, it was 14K, unusual in itself. So, I sent off an email to Perry Null and he has kindly identified it for me. It's Harvey Begay, son of Kenneth Begay. Do as you do, I will not protest... But, I will disagree... The marks above are said to be Harvey Begay....and I don't see this style of bracelet work as coming from his hand. Nor do I see the Bahe signature mark as being Begay's. In all my years of selling South West Indian jewelry......I have never sold a piece where I did not clean off black marker pawn shop scribble....as it meant nothing to the item involved....to me or my clients.
