Vintage Navajo old pawn rare silver and turquoise decorated clock- Percy Spencer

Description

This is a vintage Navajo old pawn, silver and turquoise decorated clock signed by Percy Spencer. While old pawn jewelry is common, Navajo decorated clocks by listed artisans are quite a rarity. The workmanship of the silver decoration and turquoise is of the highest quality. The whole frame of the clock and the decoration were created and fabricated by the artist and the clockworks are supplied by another company. The clock
does not work
and there is a small sliver of glass missing along an edge of the clock’s glass cover. The clock has an unusual hand (see the pictures), likely for an alarm setting, that has an arrow decoration adding to the Native American style. Since the word ‘STERLING’
does not appear
by the artist’s name, I assume the frame of the clock is a base metal to which the silver and turquoise decoration is attached. There is some underlying gold wash that shows up through the silver on the frame. A nice patina has developed around the raised silver decoration. The dimensions are about 7.5 inches wide, 4.5 inches high and 2.5 inches in depth at the base. Check out the pictures to see the beautiful vintage workmanship. Don’t miss the chance to own this rarity among silver and turquoise decorative Navajo art items.
