Navajo Bolo Ties
A Navajo bolo tie (sometimes "bola") is a type of western style necktie usually consisting of a piece of braided leather with decorative metal tips, and secured with an ornamental clasp or slide. In the late 1940s, silversmith Victor Cedarstaff patented a new design for neck wear that he called a "bolo tie", because it resembled the lengths of rope used by the gauchos of Argentine to catch cattle and game. However it is also asserted that the first "bolo" style neck wear was an American pioneer creation. To bolster this claim, New Mexico has a bolo tie on display at a native American trading post that is rumored to date back to the 1860s. The decorative silver tips and ornate slides associated with bolo ties soon became a natural fit for the skilled master silversmiths of the Navajo Indians, who are often credited with making some of the most exquisite and desirable pieces available. Navajo bolo ties, often inlaid with turquoise, have become a particularly popular piece of fashionable jewelry today. Adjustable Navajo bolo ties fit both men and women, are considered appropriate for either casual or formal occasions.
