Yet another thrift store $1 purchase.... I'm not real familiar with Native American Jewelry.... any help on possible age and whether their Navajo, Zuni, or what have you... would be much appreciated.

If that mark says TS, it's Navajo. Guy named Strong John. Touch the stones to your face. If cold, they are real. Suspect they are, but do that in the future. Lot of fake from the middle east...

Thank you Austin... I appreciate the help. I did do the "touch test" to my face, and yes the stones are cold. I'm use to seeing 925 silver stamp on most of my silver, but this is stamped 900?? ... It does test positive for silver with an acid test.... Does that give a clue to possibly how old these may be?... just curious... Thanks so much :)

They're not south western Native American made, but mid eastern or Turkish jewelry imo.
