Message:: [QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 232847, member: 29"]The fact that it only says 925 and in the oval. I have a fairly extensive collection of Navajo and other NA jewellery all bought in the US, between 1979 and the early 2000s, although some is much older. Almost all reservation bought. Mine are pretty well all properly marked for artists, and as to silver content, I can't find any that say 925. Some have no content mark - that's the older pieces - the rest are marked Sterling, SIL, Silver or Sterling Silver. I think the only exception is an old pawn piece bought in 1979 which hasn't a thing on it. That was before the stuff became wildly fashionable. As to whether it's Southwestern, if it's artisan, mass market like QVC or made for someone like Bell Trading, I'd expect a maker's mark even then. I don't think this is US made. I agree on that clasp, too.[/QUOTE]
