This exceptional Navajo bolo tie is a handcrafted work of art by silversmith Leonard Maloney, whose detailed stamp work and bold turquoise settings have earned wide respect among collectors of fine Southwestern jewelry.
At its center rests a striking Sonoran Gold turquoise stone, showcasing a rich blue tone accented by hints of moss green along one edge—a natural hallmark of this rare and beautiful turquoise. The stone is gracefully set within an ornate sterling silver frame, featuring precise hand-stamped and repoussé designs that reflect the artistry of traditional Navajo silversmithing.
The bolo is signed “Maloney” on the reverse and stamped “Sterling”, affirming both its authenticity and silver purity. The piece is paired with a hand-braided black leather cord, complemented by handcrafted sterling silver tips that complete the design with refined detail.
Measuring 24 inches in total length from the top to the bottom of the silver tips, this bolo offers an ideal balance of craftsmanship and statement presence. The bolo slide itself measures 3 1/8 inches top to bottom and 2 1/2 inches side to side, while the sterling tips are 2 inches long. The total weight, including the leather cord, is 127.9 grams.
Elegant, substantial, and entirely handmade, this bolo tie embodies the enduring beauty of Navajo artistry and the vibrant soul of the Southwest.
