The bolo tie was made the official neckwear of Arizona in 1971. New Mexico passed a non-binding measure to designate the bolo as the state's official neckwear in 1987. On March 13, 2007, New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson signed into law that the bolo tie was the state's official tie.

My father had a bolo tie. The knot was turquoise. He also had a turquoise ring. I don't remember him ever wearing either. I don't know what happened to them. His aunt (mother's sister) was into crafts and made them.

I am very fond of Southwest Native American Arts & Crafts. I have a rather large collection of Hopi, Navajo, and Zuni turquoise jewelry. I am particularly fond of rings but I do own one spectacular Zuni Cluster bolo tie with tips by Alice Quam. I wear it only when I am at Native American Galleries and shows in New Mexico and sometimes in Arizona.
