Description:

This eclectic collection of seven vintage jewelry pieces spans multiple cultural traditions and eras, offering exceptional variety for collectors. The centerpiece is a Native American-style heishi beaded necklace approximately 18-20 inches in length, strung with alternating white shell, purple/gray stone, and genuine turquoise heishi disc beads in a graduated pattern with a small S-hook clasp showing oxidation consistent with age. Accompanying the necklace is a pair of substantial sterling silver clip-on earrings featuring triangular tiger's eye or picture jasper cabochon stones set within heavily stamped and oxidized silver bezels with a shadowbox-style ridged border design, measuring approximately 1.25 inches in diameter — a classic Southwest silversmith style from the 1970s-1980s. The brass Southwest-style belt buckle or brooch features crushed turquoise and coral stone inlay depicting a Kokopelli-like bird figure and geometric Pueblo motifs on a textured brass ground, a popular tourist and artisan piece from the Colorado/New Mexico region. The large brass Egyptian Revival brooch depicts a stylized lioness or panther face with vivid cobalt blue enamel detailing, golden eyes, and a central Egyptian cartouche motif on the forehead — likely a costume jewelry piece from the 1970s-1980s Egyptian Revival trend. A small round cloisonne pendant or brooch features a black enamel ground with a white bird, red poinsettia, and green foliage in the Chinese or Japanese cloisonne tradition, gold-tone framed. The silver-tone torii gate pendant with a dangling ball is a Japanese-inspired piece, likely pewter or silver-plate, referencing Shinto shrine architecture. Condition is overall Good to Very Good: the heishi necklace shows light wear and the clasp is functional; the sterling earrings show expected oxidation and patina; the brass pieces show light surface wear; the cloisonne piece is intact with no visible enamel loss; the torii pendant shows minor tarnish. No maker's marks confirmed on most pieces without closer examination.
