I love this beautiful sandcast sterling w/turquoise pin. It's 2,5"x 1.25" marked LE Sterling on back. I also wear this pinned to a wide black leather bracelet in the "bow guard" style altho it is not nearly as beautiful as those traditional ketohs.
I found this about 15 yrs ago....I think for $20 at a auction for a closing trading post. I didn't have much money and I tried to buy as much as my budget allowed.
All comments appreciated and don't worry if you only like it.
Thank you friends!

Great site to identify Indian Native American Hallmarks.
Just LOVE this pin
Thank you mel! This is a great website. I have used it before but thanks for posting it here. I need to go back thru and ID some items. No I can't find the same LE mark. I'm glad you love my jewelry. Will be posting more.
I love it ofcourse! Of the two brooches I love this the most.
Thank you Elisabeth - it has more of the traditional Navajo style. I bought both pins the same day. I couldn't decide and the price was very good.

Thank you toe! Yes another really great Navajo pin. I have been collecting for a long time. But I make mistakes. Recently bought some fakelite - it was listed as bakelite but wasn't. I wasn't sure so I didn't bid too much. I think that's the secret don't you? I enjoy hearing comments - would love to see what you collect.
