    Navajo Hallmark indetification
    Hi there. I recently got a Navajo, hand made, turquoise, sterling silver ring. The turquoise came from the Kingman turquoise mine in Arizona. The ring is stamped Sterling Silver with the hallmark A. Can anyone give me some information about this hallmark please. Many thanks.

    Martin.

    I'm sorry, but that's not quite enough information to identify the artist. Navajo and Native American hallmarks, especially, are tough to track down. For the most information, ask the dealer you bought it from. Even if they didn't make it, there must have a source of where it came from.

    Good luck!
