Vtg 925 Sterling Silver Howling Coyote Wolf Cactus Brooch Pin Pendant 1 3/8"

Item Description: Beautiful vintage Southwestern sterling silver brooch featuring a highly detailed howling coyote (or wolf) paired alongside a desert cactus silhouette. This piece exhibits excellent craftsmanship with traditional hand-stamped textures, geometric chevron patterns along the neckline, and fine sunburst stamping along the back. The recessed grooves feature a beautiful, natural oxidized patina that provides gorgeous contrast against the polished silver surfaces.   This multi-functional piece features a secure rolling safety clasp on the back, alongside a built-in hidden silver loop (bail) under the chin, allowing it to be worn interchangeably as a shirt pin, lapel brooch, or a necklace pendant.   The reverse side is clearly stamped with a clean 925 mark, certifying its sterling purity. It is an unsigned bench-made or workshop artisan piece characteristic of mid-to-late 20th-century Southwestern jewelry design.
