Lavonne Lalio Zuni Native American sterling and turquoise bolo tie 37", no
issues.
All precious metals are tested and guaranteed. A Native American jewelry piece
referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I
rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver
or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is
92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a
little over, some a little under. It wasn't an exact thing with handmade
jewelry. I've seen thousands of pieces xrf'd to prove this. Bracelets are
