STATEMENT BOLO BY SMALLCANYON
Doris Smallcanyon is a recognized Navajo artisan known for her squash blossoms and kachina figures, one of which graces this gorgeous vintage bolo. The sterling silver slide depicts a detailed and dimensional kachina adorned with five stones of bright blue turquoise set in tiny serrated bezels. The cord is a traditional braided leather tipped with sterling silver aiguillettes. A stunning statement piece for a guy or a gal.
