Our "Vintage Shop" contains contemporary and vintage items, sometimes with materials, date and origin unknown.The items in the "Vintage Shop" are either hallmarked / signed authentic Native American Indian Made pieces OR unsigned / unmarked pieces. Prior to 1950 hallmarks were not commonly used. The unsigned pieces in our "Vintage Shop" are most likely Indian made but by law cannot be listed as such since their exact origin cannot be proven. We will designate authenticity status on each individual item page. Most of the pieces have been previously owned but some are New Old Stock (NOS) that were never used. Many pieces have signs of wear and use such as darkened patina on silver and gold. Some may have damage. We will describe the condition of each item on its individual page. For new items visit our New Jewelry Store. For items not Native American visit our Bargain Barn. | ||

I appreciate the expediency of the service." - Lee "The bracelet [bear paw bracelet] is lovely." - Marie "Thanks so much, just got the Denim Lapis ring in the mail today and immediately put it on. Fits real nice and ... appreciate your prompt service and delivery (as usual ) and will probably be back for more sometime in the future." - Shirl "Hello Paula, I loveeeeeeeeeeee my ring & the slave bracelet also. I wanted to thank you." - Maria "The ring [bear claw ring] is absolutely fabulous !!!!! I have a HUGE Grizzly claw cuff, I acquired some years back. I've learned that, by the workmanship, of the different pieces, one can pretty much tell the decade it was created. The ring and my cuff have basically the same theme characteristics. This ring I think would date about the mid 70's even 80's. The ring will complement the cuff nicely." - T "I just picked up the (Elsie Nez turquoise cabochon) bracelet at the post office and immediately tried it on....it is SOME BRACELET!!! It has a "presence" when it is on and it (I know it sounds crazy but...) feels like a hand holding my arm..in a good way. "Anyway, was very happy with the whole ordering process with you guys and will probably order more in the future. You have unique pieces and they are always changing, so I visit your site often, cause you never know. Love Elsie's bracelet and all the best to you all." - Shirley |
