Braded black leather vintage bolo tie with onyx and agate inlay.  The inlay is beautifully done, tight and smooth to the touch with no spaces or material between the stone pieces.  The back of the piece is marked "Sterling" and the initials "SS" above an arrowhead.  The ends of the tie are also made of sterling with pointed cone tips.  The leather strap is in good condition.  This is a heavy piece and is likely Native American made.  Although the origin is not certain, the Apache Indians are known to use the arrowhead as a symbol on their silver jewelry more than other tribes.  The centerpiece measures 2 1/4" long by 1 3/4" wide.  SORRY. THIS ITEM HAS ALREADY BEEN SOLD!
