vintage_rocks I can't see where it is damaged, but it would probably be very inexpensive to have fixed, I always fix all of my vintage native american jewelry. : )

a_mccarter @vintage_rocks oh it's jus the spacing between the beads. I think the string has pulled was already lil loose when I got.it but I'm afraid I'll b wearing it and it will jus break. Might b silly ? But the actual threaded string won't have affect on piece itself right if it was replaced.

a_mccarter @liagpurple yea and the lady that told me the Ctual name of it said they were becoming more and more rare she said mine was from early 70s and probly word like 70 bucks as is in the condition cuz the string is kinda pulled on mine the comment is on the page from her if Im off but it's a very small version of it and I paid like 3-5 $ for mine. Lol love em and they apparently worth lot more

sunbursthancock Hi, if you would ever like this restrung, I can do that for you & put a different clasp if you don’t like the barrel clasp. I have all the stuff to string jewelry:) I’d hate for you to wear it & it break.

Mar 02Reply
sunbursthancock
sunbursthancock It would only be like $10 to restring if you want to keep the same clasp. It would be an easy fix. If you want a new clasp I’d just charge you actual cost so you can lmk about that. Nicer solid silver ones run like $5, but if you like how the clasp is, I’ll just put that one back on. Also, are you on instagram by chance? If so I can message you my mailing address there and you can send to me.

Wasn't tagged to me jus reply after out conversatin..So sorry I hope u forgive it not ignoring u..oopsy..lol I'm curious with these can u buy the animals separately to make say a bracelet? plus, I've noticed these r very popular but also very pricey and I'm curious if u know wether the different types of animals means round about age or value?

a_mccarter @sunbursthancock What part or how can u tell the time est. Of when it was made or value of..thanks for any info u have on this...thanks so much

sunbursthancock
sunbursthancock @a_mccarter good morning I’m just waking up and seeing your messages. Im happy to restring this for you, I have all the supplies and make my own stuff😊 as far as the value and finding something to match as a bracelet I am not sure. @vintage_rocks is the most knowledgeable person I know when it comes to authentic Native jewelry. My guess on the value of this necklace is over $100, but sentimental value can always be more.
Mar 17Reply
sunbursthancock
sunbursthancock @a_mccarter and as far as time to restring I can easily turn it around in a couple of days. We have options, and I know trusting a complete stranger can be scary, so if you prefer we do all through posh it will cost more out of pocket with shipping and everything. Or I can get you my e mail and give you my mailing address that way and it should only be like $3 to $4 to mail to me. You can LMK what you are most comfortable with:)
Mar 17Reply
sunbursthancock
sunbursthancock @a_mccarter also if you go to my feedback you can see I’m a very honest person, I’ve trade with some trusted friends sometimes!!! But can also tell you that if you need any references you can see who I trade with and ask them😊
Mar 17Reply
sunbursthancock
sunbursthancock @a_mccarter the cheapest option would be for you to mail the necklace to me directly with tracking. Once it arrives I can restring w/in a couple of days on a coated/braided wire that won’t ever break. Then you’d just have to tell me if you want to keep the same barrel clasp or of you want like a lobster clasp. The restring part would only be like $10 and then option for clasp would be like $5 more but I may have to order that, then postage to mail back to you. Easy fix😊

nannyharper @a_mccarter Thank you so very much and I will keep that in mind. I can tell you MILOR Italy is top quality Sterling silver. I do know that, I carry more vintage than anything. I love the vintage vs today's jewelry. My opinion the quality is so much better. I pulled the not for sale for a friend I made on here to see so I will let you know hon and if she isn't interested I will tag you and keep NFS . As far as knowing age I honestly don't think there is a way. Mine I have had that long so,

nannyharper
nannyharper @a_mccarter oh this one you have is beautiful and definite vintage.A lot of older, vintage, Navajo etc have the type of clasps you are talking about. I have a lot of liquid silver made with cones and barrels and I love the liquid silver it's gorgeous. Watch for the markings on your items hon that. Can tell you a lot. Research any markings or words written on the item such as the SAY initials 924 RB the letters can tell you a lot such as designer, era ETC

vtgcovergirl
vtgcovergirl @a_mccarter It’s SO one of those “finds of the century” kind of pieces. That clasp kind of keeps it more retro and true to its age. Something to think about. I found a liquid silver/turquoise necklace in my “vault” of stuff last week, but this very clasp had been torn off so I have to restring the whole piece. Made me think about this one. Good luck with it!
Apr 06Reply
a_mccarter
a_mccarter @riglem65 oh if u intend to sell it once fixes plz think of me and tag me if b very interesting in seeing it I love both liquid silver and turquoise. I'd appreciate very much..I like this clasp and the cone ends with the simple hook as well. I like the vintage look to it so that was why I was still thinking on it If I wanted to change it all all cuz I like to keep original but I wonder if another would be more secure or better as far value of it..??

a_mccarter @nannyharper o I had a whole msg typed out to u and my pg one died..hahah I don't even know what all was in it..lol so if it seemed I jus dropped off that is y..lol
Apr 06Reply
vtgcovergirl
vtgcovergirl @a_mccarter As long as you use quality sterling you’re probably okay as far as the technical monetary value, but because it’s a vintage piece, these type of barrel clasps are usually a sign that it’s from a particular time period. That’s my understanding anyway. I’m actually going to look for one that will go with mine if I can’t find it in the stash. I’ll tag you for sure whenever that project is complete. 😉😉
