Chas P Shipley:    
Chas P Shipley extremely rare tooled leather horse feed bucket. Makers mark on onside bottom. This is a rare piece by the famous bit, spur and leather harness maker from Kansas City, MO. It has wonderful tooling on outside and also an extra large makers mark stamp on the inside bottom. The stitching holding the inside integral with the walls has come apart, therefore the two pieces will come apart. Other than that in great shape. Easy to repair I will leave that to the prospective buyer. $499. Or make me a fair offer! Priced to sell quick.

Teddie Weahkee?:    
Here are two Zuni fetishes that could have possibly been made Teddie Weahkee! I am selling them separate. One is the oldest made out of Malachite (the green stone) that I have ever seen (ca 1940's); I believe that it could be a bear. It has coral, shell, and turquoise beads along with a stylized turquoise arrowhead. It also has a leather or sinew wrap in the classic style. This one is a must have for any collector of early fetishes if you don’t have an early example of malachite. Overall it is very pleasing with a nice old patina. $950.00 or make me an offer.
The bottom fetish in the photo is likely a fox or wolf it has turquoise inset eyes and a leather/sinew wrap with turquoise arrowhead. This one is made out of either jet or possibly rocky mountain jade. Also a very nice pleasing fetish. I acquired both of these fetishes from an old time collector that had discovered them in a Colorado antique shop over 35 years ago. $775.00
   
Gold Nugget:    
I bought this when gold was much lower. It came in a box that showed the figures for weighing it in water (displacement) and dry. I have not personally done this procedure but believe the figures. There is just over 1 oz. of gold in the nugget 1 1/6 to be exact. Again I am going solely on the notes on the inside box lid. So you will have to be the judge and all are welcome to meet me at a show or come view the nugget in person. Often large nuggets are priced over spot as they are hard to find. This one here also is likely California gold which adds to its value. Overall it is a very pleasing specimen. $1,950.00.
