Gorgeous Heavy 20 inch Fat Iron Chain silver box This tea bowl is signed

This tea bowl is signed on the bottom with a name and several marks (see photos) but I am unable to decipher it

and I think this is a pretty iconic one

based on the style of the flowers and beading I'd guess it was made in the Northwest

In the 1960's

Gorgeous Heavy 20 inch Fat Iron Chain silver box This tea bowl is signedThis is not my typical sort of find, but this old iron chain is simply gorgeous, and I could not not bring it home with me. It weighs about 3 1 2 pounds, and the iron is a really rich charcoal black, in spectacular condition; to me, it reads as pure sculpture. It's definitely got age, showing some wear where the links overlap, just right. I'm not sure what its original use would have been, but certainly it would hold a great weight. Just shy of 20"
