Cowboy Pins Appraisal

Collection of Western-Themed Metal Pins/Brooches

This collection features four metal pins or brooches, likely made from a polished silver-tone alloy, possibly pewter or a plated base metal, given their luster and the apparent lack of tarnish typical of sterling silver. The objects are displayed on a vibrant red quilted or padded textile surface. The top left item is a profile bust of a Native American chief wearing a full feather headdress, intricately detailed with individual feathers and facial features. To its right is a three-dimensional head of a horse, depicted with a bridle, showing fine detail in the mane and facial structure. Below the horse head is a circular piece with a decorative border resembling beading or small pearls, and an inner textured oval, suggesting it might be a locket or a component of a larger piece, though it appears to be a separate pin. The bottom middle item is a pair of highly detailed cowboy boots with spurs, showcasing the stitching, heel, and toe structure typical of Western footwear. All pieces exhibit a uniform bright, reflective silver color. There are no visible signs of significant wear, damage, or repairs, indicating they are either well-preserved or relatively new. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with clear, defined details. The style suggests a Western or Americana theme, likely from the late 20th to early 21st century. No maker's marks or signatures are discernible from the image. The items appear to be uniform in finish and possibly from the same manufacturer or collection.
