Pear Shaped Turquoise Bolo Tie [SG-289]

This bolo tie features a pear-shaped high-grade turquoise cabochon, alive with heavy matrix and spider webbing in the host rock. The fine bezel set is hand cut, and the thick silver body has been formed to taper with three distinct rings surrounding the stone.

The inner ring creates a shadowbox, while the outer two half-arches are stamped with lines that frame the turquoise and draw the eye directly into its natural beauty. This thoughtful silversmithing detail compels the viewer to linger on the stone’s depth and brilliance.

The back is stamped “GB Sterling”, confirming solid sterling silver construction. The “GB” hallmark is associated with Navajo silversmiths from the Begay family, one of the most recognized families of Native silversmiths, whose work is known for traditional designs and high-quality turquoise settings.

This piece retains its original deep patina, the natural darkening of silver earned through decades of age. The bolo measures 40 inches long, including its cord and tips, a length that makes it both substantial and wearable.
