Pholoby Carl Bain Karla Hagan Indian jewelry rarely antique By JEANNE LESEM UPI Family Living Editor It a merchant tries to sell you genuine antique American Indian silver jewelry, be suspicious. Little exists outside of museums, says Phyllis Lauder. Articles must be at least 100 years old to qualify as antique.

Mrs. Lauder is general manager of the nonprofit American Indian Arts Center in New York City. In an interview, she said American Indian silver jewelry as we now know it was not made before 1870. The center is run by the Association on American Indian A a i a voluntary citizens' organization established in 1963 as an outlet for the work of Indian and Eskimo master painters, sculptors and craftsmen. Mrs.

Lauder said the best Indian jewelry on the open market now is contemporary, partly because the early work used coin silver. I i a a a technicians," she added, pointing out a heavy corn bracelet set with rows of turquoise, coral and shell kernels; the price, $1,200. The silversmith was Don Johnson, a Navajo who is known (or his work with heavy stipled silver encrusted with coral or turquoise. Johnson often uses precious ores to line his work, and signs it with a black opal on the underside. Until recently, few Indians used signatures or hallmarks, Mrs.

Lauder said. The Hopis now stamp everything that comes through their cooperative. delta diary and some well known silver and goldsmiths are starting to identify their work. The vogue for Indian jewelry has raised prices and led to mass production by manufacturers. Some hire Indians for their assembly lines and a i i work as "American Indian Made" or by Chief So-and-So" or "Indian Designed." Many fakes are being imported from the Orient, Mrs.

Lauder said. She urges purchasers to check each article carefully for the mark of foreign manufacture, or signs that such a mark has been removed. Mrs. Lauder also said that stabilized turquoise is becoming more prevalent. Stabilizing increases a gem's durability and life without detracting from its value, she added.

She said that genuine turquoise eventually will become spotty or lighter in color. Stabilizing, or hardening, treatment cannot always prevenl this. Even experts need chemical laboratory tests to identify fake turquoise, Mrs. Lauder said, so there's all the more reason to buy only from reliable sources. Surprisingly, she does not put Southwestern trading posts in that class, unless they are accepted as reliable by Indians themselves.

However, co-ops run by and for the Navajos, Zunis, Kopis and many pueblo tribes in the same area are trustworthy. clubhouse The Greenville Teen Gub will hold a dance at the Teen Clrb building from 8-12 p.m. Saturday. The A. G.
