45 years ago, this dazzling turquoise and coral brooch won Third Prize in the 1976 Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial in Gallup, New Mexico, and it's still got the ribbon to prove it. (Many thanks to the pin's previous custodians, who kept its ribbon as part of its story for all these years).

Even though this beauty is almost half a century old, it's still a gorgeous addition to your modern-day wardrobe.

The silver pin shows meticulous stone work by an artist named on the back of the ribbon with the first name Rosia and the last name possibly Francisco, who was exhibitor #36. 

The exceptional turquoise bow brooch measures 3 1/8" x 1 5/8" and is unsigned. 

It will arrive with its original ribbon.
