<p>[QUOTE="DanielD, post: 74515, member: 510"]While I know this is far from antique but with the knowledge base in the jewelry department hopefully someone has a bit of expertise in Navajo jewelry who can help me identify this artist. This piece has been bothering me for quite some time. Its profusely marked with not only (above) sterling marks but also an animal glyph (which I cant figure out if its a turtle or a fat frog.. or lizard?) as well as the mark "JR" (or a fancy FR?") which you think would be easily identifiable (and maybe I am just too thick to figure it out). None of my search results for all of these combinations come up with any leads. There is a "JR" artist but none of his work resembles this piece. There is another word marked on the silver (which I am assuming is Navajo because I cant read it at all). I have the matching ring to this piece as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you[ATTACH=full]19242[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]19243[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]19244[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]19245[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]19246[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
