Does anyone recognise this hallmark? Is this a Murano bead or Pandora? I have no clue at all!
Yes, I believe that’s correct. This looks like a Navajo Pearl, sterling silver beads that were usually strung together.
But this one is not a bead - I mean, it’s not round. It’s covered in tiny zirkons and it opens up and snaps shut. I can’t imagine Navajo beads doing that? I’m so confused
Now I find myself confused by Bart’s post. On the linked page, there doesn’t seem to be a word about Navajo jewelry, so I don’t understand why he’s posted the link. I thought, without checking, that he had found the same mark in a reference work. Next time, I’ll check first.
To be clear - I provided the link as a hint because I associated the unknown signature with Navajo symbolism. This silver pendant (charm) resembles Pandora jewelry, that’s a fact. I didn’t know it was covered with cubic zirconia. This changes the appearance of things and the scope of the search completely. I apologize that this time I did not provide the expected and complete answer - I am only human.
No worries, I appreciate your taking the time to respond - both of you
