Bolo tie with Pilot Mountain cabochon, Blue Gem turquoise & coral overlay
About the Item
Sterling silver bolo tie by Navajo silversmith Jack Tom. The 1 3/8” x 3 1/4” silver overlay bolo has a 5/8” x 1” Pilot Mountain cabochon along with Blue Gem turquoise and coral overlay. The bolo is on a 46” braided leather strap with silver ends and squash blossom dangles.
The Pilot Mountain turquoise mine is located in western Nevada. It began as a copper mine but soon it was realized that the turquoise found there was extremely high quality. Pilot Mountain turquoise is known worldwide for its high grade color and quality.
The Blue Gem mine, which is no longer active, produced a great variety of turquoise, from intense blue to deep green with an irregular matrix. The Blue Gem mine, which began production in 1934 yielded the most valuable turquoise because of its rich color and hardness.
Jack Tom was born of the Salt Clan in 1948 at Keams Canyon, Arizona. He began making jewelry in 1971.
In 1979, while working on the railroad, Jack was struck by lightning. He returned home to his father, a Medicine Man, who performed a Shooting Way ceremony. This restored Jack's health and harmony.
Therefore, he uses a lot of lightning patterns in his jewelry. His great grandmother was Hopi so he uses Hopi patterns as well as the traditional Navajo designs. He also incorporates Navajo rug patterns and Anasazi patterns in his work. He believes the "Old Ones" left their designs for others (him) to use.
