Paula says - "You will see "STER AT" hallmark on a number of different rings in our store that are made by different artists. That's because the artists purchase cast sterling silver ring blanks from a Native American jewelry supply house. The ring blanks come with this hallmark. When we purchase rings, we try to find out who did the stone and silver work and indicate that on the page. "In my opinion, this ring shows all the design characteristics and workmanship of being Native American made. But because there is no hallmark that we can attribute to a specific artist we can't legally sell it as Native American made - read more." |
