I'm trying to identify a Native American Turquoise bracelet. It has a hall mark on one side which is a underlined P_ on the other side there is a shape like a 4 pointed crown or claw(first claw narrow) over a C or crescent. The stone is a greenish, rounded triangular shape about an inch in diameter.The arms are two simple round silver bands with a coiled band in between which goes across the back of the stone. Sorry my camera isn't working.
Any help will be appreciated, thanks in advance, [email protected]

Hello, I saw your question about the hallmark on your bracelet and I don't know if anyone has given you an answer yet or not, but this is what I found. Your piece was done by Long Phillip. His hallmark is a 'P,L' put together to form what looks like a 'P' with a foot, and also the half sunburst. I have not found anything about him online. I found his hallmark in the book, " Hallmarks of the Southwest", by Barton Wright. So I hope this helps. I am a Southwest Art Consultant here in Colorado and I saw your question and wanted to help.
Sincerely,HeatherRamon
