Native American Navajo sterling 925 silver Hair BARRETTE hair pin SS254

A striking vintage sterling silver brooch designed in a large domed form with intricate hand-engraved decoration. The surface displays a beautifully executed radial floral motif surrounded by scalloped and geometric borders, all carefully hand chased into the silver creating depth and texture. The piece secures with a long traditional pin that passes through the brooch body and is finished with a small engraved end cap, giving it the appearance of a historic hair ornament or cloak brooch. The interior construction and heavy gauge silver reflect traditional hand craftsmanship. Though no hallmark is present, the piece has been tested as sterling silver. Its bold scale and strong decorative engraving make it a distinctive collector piece.
