Welcome!

I\'m offering for your consideration a wonderful and rare Pinto Horse Bolo made by Jack Mahkee. It\'s superb! And there are inlaid dangling tips in the form of an elaborate saddle. This piece is realistically created; the stones are carved in a three dimensional manner so the muscles and shape of the horse is properly represented. There is also a carved mane and tail and details such as carving on his saddle and turquoise and black chest band, saddle blanket and reins. The bridle is turquoise, too and the horse has white legs and a brown body as well as a white mane and tail. He\'s standing on turquoise grass. All the details are beautifully done. Note the silver pommel on the saddle. There are so many fine details, so superbly constructed! The brown shell, Pen shell in two colors, one for the horse and his hooves and a lighter color brown for the saddle. The tips match well and include a turquoise and jet saddle blanket on the detailed saddles with silver pommels. This piece is in superb vintage and collectible and wearable condition. It\'s amazing and it\'s stunning.

The dimensions of the bolo are about 3\" high and 3\" wide. The dangling tips are inlaid to match and are about 1-3/8\" high and 7/8\" wide. The piece is signed by hand engraving on the back with Jack Mahkee\'s name, as he signed his pieces. It\'s not marked for silver content but of course it would be sterling silver. All the stones are natural and hand cut and buffed and set. This is a fabulous piece.

Jack Mahkee appears in Bassman\'s book and Schaaf\'s Biographies 3 book and also in Sai\'s most recent book where he also includes a picture of a horse bolo similar to this one. He was one of the superb Zuni artists in history and this piece is a wonderful example of his fine work. I commend it to your attention for your collection. It\'s one of the museum worthy pieces.
