[QUOTE="stracci, post: 4541395, member: 13814"]Hmmm.....interesting! Yes, it appears to be Native American. Most likely Navajo. It does not look Anglo-made at all. And it looks like it has some age, looking at that notched bezel style. The turquoise has darkened from age as well. The black veining is interesting. Is there pyrite in the veining? Maybe Kingman. I don't know why it would be made that way. Are the links soldered? That middle connector is weird, too. How long is it?[/QUOTE]
