This is a vintage Native American Indian themed charm bracelet that was a tourist souvenir from the Southwest. The bracelet is made from a silvertone metal. There are six different charms all with faux (synthetic not real) turquoise accent beads. The bracelet measures approximately 7 inches in length and is signed on the back of the round charm with a crown and the word “Sancrest” and the letter “R” underneath. This is a logo for Sandford & Company, they were active in the 1920s through the 1950s, and first used the Sancrest logo in 1951. They were known for their Southwest Native American style jewelry, which was sold in hotels along the railroad lines and shops along Route 66. This is most likely from the 1950s. The charms measure anywhere from just under an inch to just over an inch in length. Each of the charms is finely detailed on the front and the back. The bracelet will fit a small to medium wrist best.

This bracelet is in great vintage condition as you can see by the enlarged photographs. I have taken pictures of the front and back of each of the charms. The charms do show normal age wear. I will leave any polishing up to you; you can keep it in the same condition with its original patina or polish it. The fold over clasp closure works fine and is secure. Please look at the photos as they are part of the description and show the details better than I can describe.

This would be perfect for anyone who loves the old Southwestern tourist souvenir jewelry.
