Is the jewelry marked 'Wolf Robe Hunt' ? I do agree with the others that this is glass. Wolf Robe Hunt was an artist in the early to mid 20th century and this rather has the look of the explosion of 'native' jewelry that was made in the 70's. So that is the reason for my query as to what it is actually marked.
THE FOLLOWING INFO IS FROM askART web site about Wolf Robe Hunt. Hope it helps.
"Chief Wolf Robe Hunt was a Native American painter, illustrator, silversmith and sculptor of the Acoma nation. He was born at the Acoma Pueblo in New Mexico in 1905. His family eventually left the Pueblo to travel with a Wild West show. After his marriage he settled in Tulsa, Oklahoma where he owned a shop on 11th Street (Route 66) and sold the silver jewelry he made to tourists and Tulsans alike. After the freeways caused traffic to bypass his shop, he opened a trading Post in Catoosa, Oklahoma across the highway from the Blue Whale water structure. There he continued selling his jewelry until his death in 1977."

·1 year agoI'm going to go in a different direction and say these are art glass stones with infused copper flakes, known as aventurine glass. JMHO

OP1 year agoI was thinking it may be some sort of art glass, but I hadn’t seen it used much in Native American jewelry.

OP1 year agoI have tried google images with no luck.
I have not seen anything like it before. It does not look like any malachite that I have.
