In this lot is a Zuni mother of pearl, onyx, and malachite bird ring and a bolo tie with covered wagon clip. On the face of this ring, there is a bird that is made out of onyx and mother of pearl on an onyx branch with a malachite cactus behind the bird. The edge of this ring is rounded out. This ring measures 6 3/4". Next is a Zuni Native American sterling silver and multi-stone inlay covered wagon bolo tie. The tie features a silver slide depicting a covered wagon and is set with four different kinds of stone. The slide is set on a woven leather cord with silver tips on each end. The slide features turquoise, red coral, and mother of pearl set into a sterling silver frame with silver rotating wheels. The back of the slide shows a locking clasp and is free of maker’s marks or signatures. The piece shows good condition overall, with some warm patina across the back of the slide. The tie measures 18 3/4" long with the slide measuring 1 1/4" long by 1 1/4" wide.
