This is the biggest Fred Harvey Cuff I have. It has the horse symbols on each side one is upwards and on other side the horse is going down .That is a familar stamp Fred Harvey used on his cuffs , For the longest time I thought they were dogs but after a little reading they are in fact horses. The cuff is sterling and has that great darkened look so I will keep it that way.As for the stone Im guessing Turquoise it looks a little like rough turquoise in someways it has some of the brown coming thru and stone is not polished. And on its age I was thinking the thirties. Thanks for looking!

I think that stone may be epidot
Very nice! About 1"? I would love to wear this cuff. Thanks for posting. What is epidot in relation to Native American silver? Is it a stone they used? I think I have this stone on some of my bracelets tool. This bracelet is so cool - I hope you wear it in best health. VERY NICE.
I meant bracelets too - not tool. My apologies for skipping comments.
Epidote is common in many igneous rocks and metamorphic rocks. They also form as alteration products in rocks of many sorts and found all over the U.S. - I just mentioned because the photos resemble polished epidote especially with the brown interference colors.
Thanks mustangtony and valentino97 for nice comments and info! I do think its about 1 inch and I do love wearing it. I love native american cuffs! Mustangtony I will look into epidote I will google it. Thanks again!
vintage - yes, look for the polished ones on google and you will see the similarity.
Wow this is a Beauty! The large Antique and rare Dark Green Turquoise! They are very hard to find especially this size! I had a ring like this and miss it. In fact the Native American Indians thought this had more spiritual powers than the blue ones...since they look older and a wiser stone. What a Find!
Thanks Moonstonelove21! I love blue turquoise but I also love green maybe even better. Would of loved to see your ring!
