A lovely, large Sterling Silver and quench- cracked dyed Quartz pendant by famous Navajo silversmith Rita-Maria Padilla. This is a statement piece, with a large, purple quartz cabochon sitting in a silver setting in an opening. A simple, modernist, bold design! Please look at the matching earrings made by Navajo Ben J. Chavez – as if they had made the pieces to fit each other! They are shown together in the last picture, but the earrings are not part of this offer.
In very good vintage condition, surface scratches present on the silver. Signed to the back:”Mary-Rita Padilla – Sterling”. 1.1oz total weight.
L: 2 ½”, 1 1/8” (cabochon)
W: 1 5/8”, 7/8” (cabochon)

Please allow up to 5 business days after your payment has been received for us to ship small items via USPS, or for local delivery.

Items requiring buyer-arranged pick up that are left longer than 60 days without additional arrangements, become the property of Driver & Goatree Retro.

We ship small items up to the size and weight that the USPS accepts. Small item shipping costs vary depending on the item, shipping method and/or destination.

We ship freight using one of several freight companies. For large and delicate pieces, we prefer to ship with a professional "white glove" furniture moving service, which includes insurance and which will ensure that your purchase is treated with care and respect while in transit. If you prefer to arrange for your own shipping, we are happy to work with you and your preferred shipper.All shipping, handling, packing and insurance costs are at the expense of the buyer.

Refunds and Exchanges:
We sell vintage items that are often over 50 years old and are used items. Even if an item is described as "very good vintage condition," the item will never be in the condition it was the day it was produced.

We will gladly provide additional photos and descriptions. Please be sure to confirm that the dimensions of the item you are interested in will be suitable in your space.
We cannot accept returns or provide refunds. All items are sold in "as is" condition. Please ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an item.
