Description
 
This wonderful bolo offers the refined modernist designs of the White Hogan Shop’s silver jewelry, led by artist Kenneth Begay. Kenneth Begay (1913–1977) was called the "father of modern Navajo jewelry" for his unique and creative modern designs.

During the 1950's Kenneth was commissioned by the Cotton Growers Association, to create silver jewelry pieces that would be presented to the association's members at their annual meeting. His creation of the cotton boll bolo, with cotton bales for the tips, was a hit. This is one of those special bolos.


The width is 1 7/8" by 2 1/4" tall. The wonderful bale tips are 5/8" tall by 9/16" wide and are solid silver. The total length including the tips is 36" long. It is hallmarked with the White Hogan’s shop mark, KB and sterling.
