BRACELET AND STONE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. PICTURES ARE OF THE ACTUAL ITEM. PLEASE SEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE EXTREMELY NICE NATIVE AMERICAN JEWELRY ITEMS. I LIST NEW ITEMS REGULARLY, SO PLEASE CHECK BACK OFTEN. NOTE: THE COLOR OF THE STONES IN THIS JEWELRY COULD BE SLIGHTLY LIGHTER OR DARKER THAN THE PICTURES SHOW, DUE TO THE FLASH REQUIRED TO GET THE PICTURES. IF THIS IS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE, ASK QUESTIONS IN ADVANCE. IF ITEM IS SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT THAN DESCRIBED. THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF CONFUSION AS TO SOME OF THE PROPER TERMS USED IN MY AUCTIONS. “DEAD PAWN” SIMPLY MEANS AN ITEM THAT WAS PAWNED FOR CASH BUT HAS NEVER BEEN REDEEMED, A COMMON PRACTICE IN THE SOUTHWEST, AND OFTEN REFERRING TO AMERICAN INDIAN JEWELRY. THIS DEFINITION IS DIRECTLY FROM GOOGLE! THIS DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THE ITEM IS OLD, IT WAS SIMPLY AN ITEM THAT WAS PAWNED AND NOT REDEEMED. THIS PRACTICE IS STILL IN USE TODAY WITH NATIVE AMERICANS OR NATIVE AMERICAN JEWELRY OWNERS AND PAWN SHOPS. OLD PAWN OR OLD DEAD PAWN. “OLD PAWN” OR “OLD DEAD PAWN” IS THE MOST HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE AMERICAN INDIAN JEWELRY. IT IS THE OLD JEWELRY THAT WAS PAWNED AND NOT REDEEMED. JEWELRY MADE FROM AS EARLY AS THE 1920’S TO THE 1970’S OR 1980’S. IF THE WORD “OLD” SHOWS UP WITH “DEAD PAWN” IN MY DESCRIPTION OR IN THE TITLE, THEN YOU CAN BE ASSURED THE ITEM IS FROM THE 1980’S OR OLDER. SOMETIMES IT IS HARD TO TELL, AND I USUALLY GET A 2ND AND SOMETIMES A 3RD OPINION FROM JEWELERS OR OTHER PROFESSIONALS AS TO THE AGE OF THE ITEM. IF THE WORD “DEAD PAWN” SHOWS UP IN THE TITLE OR IN THE DESCRIPTION, THE ITEM IS GUARANTEED TO BE DEAD PAWN BUT NOT NECESSARILY AN OLD ITEM.
