Description

Navajo Sterling & Turquoise Bolo Tie, Signed M Sterling – Melissa Yazzie

A vintage Navajo men’s bolo tie featuring a bold hand-stamped sterling silver slide set with an oval turquoise cabochon measuring approx. 19.27 x 10.54 mm. The turquoise displays a bright sky-blue hue with natural black matrix veining, framed in a twisted wire bezel. The square slide is richly decorated with scalloped and dotted stampwork radiating outward from the stone in classic Navajo tradition.

The reverse is stamped “M Sterling,” a hallmark attributed to Navajo silversmith Melissa Yazzie. This piece includes a 36.5-inch braided black leather cord, finished with sterling silver cones, completing its authentic Southwestern design. With an overall weight of 42.93 grams, it combines cultural artistry with timeless wearability — an excellent addition for collectors of Native American jewelry or as a striking accessory.

Condition:

Good vintage condition. The turquoise is secure in its bezel, and the leather cord with sterling tips is intact. The silver shows natural tarnish and surface wear consistent with age.

Dimensions:

  • Slide: 2.06" x 2.07" x 0.31"
  • Stone: 19.27 mm x 10.54 mm
  • Cord length: 36.5"
  • Overall weight: 42.93 g
