Native American Concho Belt - anyone know about them?

Post by Charmed »

I got this a while ago. It's a sterling and turquoise concho belt, I think by the Navajo artist Geraldine Yazzie (the GY initials are attributed to her on several sites. I was planning on bringing it to a (reputable) shop that deals with items like this. However, I see these types of belts running anywhere from admin edit, This is partially because I'm not sure what level of quality this belt is, or how good the turquoise is.
(admin edit; no money talk. Read the forum rules. - see Posting Requirements )
(I don't know concho belts, but I do silversmithing as a hobby.)

The turquoise is green, with mossy mottling, not blue like normal. Pics are pretty accurate color.


Thanks!
