    I did a few searches but came up empty - sorry! I have a passion for sterling and that sure is a super-nice find! Great job!

    Thanks guys... I made a search but it was a small one... had company and was cooking ribs most of the day. I did get a good site for Native American hallmarks. If no one has it I'll attach... Thanks again.

    It's probably Navajo. Although you can't find the mark online, I wouldn't worry, there are entire books dedicated to Native American jewelry marks and even those aren't complete. Most of the marks you find online are from the major silversmiths. That's a nice piece. What is the mark under the name?

    The mark below the name looks like a ram or lamb or something like that.. it's an animal. I still haven't found it.... All I had left of those ribs was a stack of bones I could have made knife handles out of they were so slick LOL
