Fred Harvey Era Butterfly Pin Navajo Native American - Vintage (Copy)
I have to admit, I'm not a big fan of insects but I do have a soft spot in my heart for these old Navajo bug pins! They look so great on a hat or a denim jacket. I've seen some really impressive collections as they really look great in groups. This is a sweet little butterfly with unusually shaped wings that are beautifully stamped and an oval turquoise. This pin has a very dark patina which I have left as found. I'd be happy to polish it up a bit if you want it brighter. Unsigned, as you would expect from these older pieces.

Care Instructions
Protect your jewelry from harsh chemicals and solvents as they can damage turquoise and other stones. I recommend using a Sunshine Cloth or similar to polish your silver. Do not immerse or subject your jewelry to running water as it can dislodge the stone from the setting.
