Materials: Sterling, Turquoise
Weight: 188g
Notes: The cones of the beads are signed with Joe Tortalita’s hallmark. The ketoh is signed with a pictomark that appears to be a bear paw design. Unable to identify pictomark artist. May be an alternative mark of Joe Tortalita, or a hallmark of a different artist. The ketoh and necklace were likely separate pieces at one point in time – the ketoh was likely attached to the bead necklace by a prior owner – bid on 2 amazing pieces turned into 1!
