DESCRIPTION:
This gorgeous money clip is absolutely distinctive in each and every way! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo overlay hand crafted by artist Tommy (Thomas) And Rose Singer out of genuine sterling silver and 12 Karat Gold Filled. Overlay is a process that utilizes at least two layers of sterling silver or gold. One layer forms the foundation, while the second layer is used to design the individual detailed overlay. In this money clip, the second layer forms magnificent 12 KGF designs for a marvelous finish. The money clip is stamped sterling and is hallmarked by artist.
12KGF is as good as gold. The color will never fade, change, or wear off. It is 12K gold on top of brass and other metals, which create a gold tone with a finish all the way through. 12KGF behaves the same way as gold.
