Antique Art Nouveau Sterling Silver Ladies Belt or Sash Buckle - Indian Chief

Description

Antique Art Nouveau Sterling Silver Ladies Belt Buckle - Sash Buckle - Indian Chief Design
UP FOR SALE:
-----------------------------------------------
Dating to the early 1900s, may I offer this American made, Art Nouveau designed, Sterling Silver (hallmarked as pictured) belt buckle - sash buckle for a lady. Featuring an Indian Chief amidst tree branches (and corn), the repousse design is nicely cast with a crisp strike. Hollow manufacture with airholes. In 2 pieces, the string you see holding the parts together is, I believe, original to the piece - it's that thin kind of fiber that you find on old price tags from the early 1900s. The main buckle measures 2-7/16" high x 1-3/4" wide. Weight of both pieces is 22 grams. Condition is very nice with just a lot of polish residue showing to the front (sorry, I forgot to give the buckle a bath before photo'ing). Maker? Good guess. My first thought was Unger but there's no maker mark - there is a style mark of 9488 so now I am thinking perhaps William B Kerr. You be the judge. Awesome subject matter. A terrific find that, if I am correct, has NEVER been worn.

TERMS
ITEM CONDITION
I have been doing EBAY for 20 years and I know what I am doing when it comes to selling.  I describe my items accurately, have multiple pictures on each of my listings so a "surprise" upon receipt is unlikely.  However, if something is amiss, I will remedy the situation as quickly as possible.
RETURNS/REFUNDS
*  Any return is to be made within 3 days after Buyer's receipt of item. Please notify me asap if you intend on making a return.
PAYMENT METHODS ACCEPTED
* PayPal - Any refund made will be less the amount Paypal keeps as a transaction fee. (New as of 11/24/19).
SALES TAX
* EBAY now collects sales tax on most states - this will be automatically added to your invoice by EBAY.
SHIPPING USA
As mentioned in the shipping area.
COMBINED SHIPPING
Yes, I will combine shipping for the best price - just do not pay and let me correct the invoice. If you pay, I can no longer refund the overage.

I package my items very well for transit so please please do not worry - your package will arrive intact.  My home is smoke and pet free!
OVERSEAS SHIPPING

RIGHT TO SELL
*
I sell on other sites so if you try to find my listing and can't, it means it has sold.
DELIVERY
* I process mail 2 to 3 times a week so once payment is received, Buyer's package will ship ASAP -  usually 1-2 days after payment is received.  If there is a delay, I will let BUYER know.
FINAL NOTE
*  Again, I will process any refund rather than EBAY.  If this rule is not to your liking, then please do not purchase the item.
