MAJOR COLLECTOR AUCTION: Fine Sterling Silver, Gold Jewelry, Navajo & Zuni Turquoise, Native American Artifacts, Lalique Crystal & Rare Coins Online Only Auction | Bidding Opens Now at BidHuber.com Preview Day: Thursday, July 24 | 1:00 PM 4:00 PM Auction Closes: Saturday, July 26 @ 6:00 PM Bid Now: BidHuber.com We can say with confidence: this is one of the finest, most diverse collections we have brought to auction in years. From museum-quality Native American arrowhead collections to estate sterling silver, 14K and 10K gold jewelry, vintage Navajo and Zuni turquoise, signed Lalique crystal, and a deep bench of U.S. silver coins and Morgan dollars this auction has the depth and quality that serious collectors, dealers, and first-time buyers alike will want to see. Simply put we have rarely, if ever, handled an arrowhead and Native American artifact collection this extensive. Hundreds of arrowheads, spear points, blades, drills, axe heads, celts, and stone tools ranging from under an inch to an incredible 10.5 inches long. Collections like this assembled over a lifetime and this consistently high in quality simply do not come to market often. Comparing this to prior Southwest and artifact estates we've sold, the sheer volume and craftsmanship on display here puts it at the top of the list. The collection is rounded out with genuine cultural pieces: hand-carved Kachina dolls, a Native American Sterling & Turquoise squash blossom necklace, beaded leather moccasins, feathered dance fans, a dance shawl, and woven bowls the kind of items that collectors search years to find. Southwest Sterling & Turquoise Jewelry By the Dozens If you collect Navajo sterling and turquoise jewelry, this auction is a dream sale. We're talking well over 100 individual Navajo sterling rings, cuffs, and watch bands featuring turquoise, coral, malachite, onyx, tiger's eye, jasper, and mother of pearl many hallmarked by known Southwest silversmiths. Highlights include a vintage Zuni sterling, turquoise & mother of pearl bolo by Vincent & Marvin Dishta, a Navajo sterling & onyx bolo tie hallmarked "A. Jensen Sterling," and rings signed by respected makers. Whether you're a longtime turquoise collector or just discovering the beauty of Southwest silverwork, this is the kind of curated depth you typically only see broken up across several estate sales here it's all in one place. Lalique Crystal A Rare Signed Collection Serious Lalique collectors take note: this auction features an outstanding run of hallmarked Ren Lalique France crystal, including the iconic "Tte de Lion" (Lion Head) ashtray and lighter, the "Tte d'Aigle" (Eagle Head) car mascot with lighted stand, the "Saint-Christophe" car mascot, the Compigne bowl, Marguerites bowl, Barsac decanter and glass set, the "Poissons" fish coupe plate, the "Le Chat" peach crystal brooch, and the signed "Fioret" pendant each piece with original boxes where noted. Collections with this many authenticated, hallmarked Lalique pieces are genuinely uncommon at auction.
