Vintage Signed JJH Sterling Silver Turquoise & Agate Bolo Tie

A richly detailed vintage sterling silver bolo tie signed JJH, featuring an organic combination of turquoise and brown agate set into an extensively hand-worked oval slide.

The face is covered in textured and stamped silverwork with applied botanical and sculptural accents, giving the piece a deeply dimensional, almost talismanic presence. A blue-green turquoise cabochon anchors the lower section, while the upper stone features a dark translucent brown body with swirling internal patterning consistent with agate.

The bolo is finished with an aged brown braided leather cord and elongated silver-tone tips that reinforce its vintage Western character.

The reverse is stamped JJH and STERLING, confirming both a maker’s mark and sterling silver construction. The exact identity of the JJH maker has not been independently confirmed, so Iron & Iris identifies the piece by its hallmark rather than assigning an unsupported artist attribution.

This is a distinctive collector bolo with strong age, patina, hand-applied ornament, and substantial visual presence.
