Vintage Turquoise Cluster Sterling Silver Bolo Tie
Vintage Turquoise Cluster Sterling Silver Bolo Tie
Description
Description
A striking vintage Southwestern bolo tie featuring a substantial hand-worked silver face set with multiple turquoise stones in an organic cluster arrangement.
The centerpiece has a sculptural, almost architectural presence, with deeply textured silverwork, irregular natural turquoise cabochons, and a darkened patina that gives the piece strong vintage character. Turquoise accents continue onto the corners of the slide and down to the matching terminal pieces, creating a cohesive statement from top to bottom.
The bolo is finished with braided black leather cord, elongated silver-tone tips, and turquoise-set terminal plates that give the piece an especially distinctive, collector-level look.
There are no visible artist hallmarks or maker stamps, so Iron & Iris does not attribute this piece to a specific artist. The construction, age, wear, and design are consistent with vintage Southwestern jewelry.

Please Note: This bolo has not been attributed to a specific artist or tribe due to the absence of visible hallmarks or provenance. The metal has not been independently tested and is therefore described conservatively as silver-tone. Vintage jewelry may show age-related wear, patina, oxidation, and irregularities consistent with hand fabrication and prior use.
