Indigenous Sheyka Sterling Silver and Inlaid Figural Rabbit Brooch or Pendant

About the Item

This Zuni Indigenous American sterling silver and inlaid gemstone figural rabbit brooch or pendant was made by Porfillo and Ann Sheyka. The piece was handmade in most likely the late 1960s in the Mid-Century Modern style and is done with a sterling silver backing with a combination of hand cut and inlaid mother of pearl, turquoise and coral with hand painted details. The piece is clearly marked with their signature capital "P" in a block cartouche followed by an engraved signature "Sheyka" in capital letters. This piece is set with a ring so it can be hung from a chain as a pendant, and a pin and clasp and worn as a brooch.

Sterling Silver Native American Indian Motif "Note Holder" American, Circa 1880

Located in Incline Village, NV

Very rare and unusual piece, a sterling silver "note holder" fronted by an Indian Chief on the front in high relief. A bale on top provides for a necklace and hanging as a decorative piece of jewelry. Other decoration on the front includes a tomahawk and a peace pipe criss-crossed beneath the Indian. The back is plain with a decorative "repousse" floral border, and "sterling" clearly marked in the lower left (see image). It is 2 7/8" high x 2" wide resembling and in the style of a match safe; probably manufactured by Unger Bros. of Newark, New Jersey, circa 1880, but difficult to observe all of the surfaces because of the frontal "notes" in permanent place. A note holder would have been used to write down reminders and/or notations by the user; the surfaces appear to be a celluloid type material. Condition is excellent with six notes intact; a very slight "crease" to the back side; hardly noticeable (see image). Appropriate Americana for the discerning collector with a Western Native American...
