Description: I think this is one of the older ones, approx: 1979-1995....The Term Vintage is not applicable here, VINTAGE MEANS-50 years old or more. Im Vintage, This is not..I may have Met Emer Thompson, in The SHIPROCK NM area. I grew up there & in the early 1980's i was Production Manager of KWYK RADIO. The largest Radio Station in the 4 Corners USA, back then. We were the Only electrical communication for 160,000 square miles of 2 Indian Reservations. Navajo,& Hopi. The Blackfoot & a few others also lived across thousands of miles of dirt in that area. My station was next Door to the Navajo Nation Radio Station. I speak a lil Navajo, Dene', & was asked to work the Navajo Station once by Ben Knighthorse Campbel.I had my 1rst Business buying trading & selling with the Navajo out in the dry desert in Silver. This type of piece was made after the Smith made Enough money, & to be "Lucky", & find enough stones they could afford, to SHOW OFF THEIR SUPPLY.. This piece has a high end Kingman/ high end Morentci/ High end Amethyst/High end LAPIS/ High end AJAX & Malachite. & White Turquoise.The model here is wearing it with other pieces that are not included, its to show this stacks well.. The other multigem in the photo is a JAY KING, ( whom ive also met),& its for sale also.I have Cancer, i need the money, otherwise id keep this " Show piece".Maybe you will be lucky & have a chance to buy them both!. I dont clean my pieces, i dont use camera filters. Silver is Soft, it bends easy!.this piece is stout, yet easy to bend for sizing.I do buff rough areas with a piece of wool.All my stuff was worn in peace, you can feel cool vibes from my walk on Gia.
