Vtg zuni Gus and Lori Panteah sterling turquoise coral and onyx ring size just over 5
This is a zuni husband-and-wife team that were born in the early 1930s. I find that their pieces are a little bit heavier than their other relatives. Gus is uncle to Arnie Gasper. I believe Florentine is Gus’s brother.

Xposted. Price does not include shipping.
note: findings such as clasps on bolos etc will never be sterling as it is not strong enough to take the tensile strength. I use JSP to test the metal.
I do not take the patina off, personally I like it but it is up to buyer what they want to do once they own it.
Condition
I always do my best to describe and/or photograph all noticeable flaws. Please study all photos and please ask questions before buying. I leave sterling in as is shape for the customer to decide whether to clean. Note that vintage items are just that, vintage. So this item was previously \'loved on,\' and may have some expected minor imperfections due to general wear. But if there were any noteable condition issues (flaws etc) outside the norm, it would otherwise be stated here whether verbally or by photo.
