Up for sale is a beautiful, authentic vintage mid-century Southwestern Thunderbird scarf slide. This piece perfectly captures the classic "Fred Harvey Era" style made popular as tourist souvenirs in the American Southwest during the early-to-mid 20th century.
The front features a striking Thunderbird design—a traditional symbol of power and protection—accented by hand-stamped traditional details including crossed arrows and geometric borders. At the center sits a gorgeous, vibrant blue oval turquoise cabochon.
The reverse features a classic vintage double-rolled metal loop design, perfect for threading your favorite silk wild rag, western bandana, or neckerchief. It is unmarked/unsigned, which is highly consistent with authentic tourist trade items of this era crafted from nickel silver or bell metal.
