Turn it sideways and the sides are hand-stamped too, so it looks good from every angle, including the one your friends see when you're gesturing wildly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's stamped \"Platero\" inside in individual letter punches (see photo 8). Platero is a well-known family of Navajo silversmiths, going back to Pablo Platero. From the style of the stamp (the lowercase l and the offset \"ero\"), I believe this was made by Ramon Platero or his wife, Louise, but there's no first initial, so I can't say which. It came to me in a local lot of old pawn jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaker: Platero family (Navajo\/Diné), stamped \"Platero\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStones: three turquoise nuggets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal: sterling silver, hand-stamped.
