Rare Magnolia Pearl Navajo Ketoh Leather Sterling Silver Turquoise Cuff Bracelet
This Gorgeous ketoh (Leather/Sterling/Turquoise fringed bracelet) is one of a kind and was made exclusively for Magnolia Pearl by the wonderfully gifted Native American Navajo artisans BRANDON WILLIAMS and KERAH TSOSIE many years ago. It will fit a range of sizes from 6 3/4 to 8 1/4. My wrist size is 7 1/4. X-tra holes could be added as necessary to accommodate a larger size wrist. It is presently in near perfect general condition as you can see from the photographs. All stones (and Lime Green ORVIL JACK Turquoise is both rare and desirable) show natural imperfections but are undamaged and secure in their settings. The Sterling is tarnished. I have made no attempt to clean it up but will leave that to the taste of its lucky new owner. The workmanship on the leather and the Sterling Silver on this piece of art is extraordinary. The buckle has been stamped on the undersurface by the artist. Ive taken lots of photos. If you have any questions please message me. Thank you so much for looking! RARE MAGNOLIA PEARL NAVAJO KETOH LEATHER STERLING SILVER TURQUOISE CUFF BRACELET. Orvil Jack moved his family to Nevada in 1956, staking a turquoise claim originally known as Blue Ridge, in Crescent Valley. This mine produces a highly collectible stone, with intense vivid greens, yellows & blues. Orvils daughter Grace tells of his preference for the blue turquoise from the mine, tossing the now coveted green away. In about 1983, Orvil began seriously to mine the brilliant lime green turquoise. After Orvil passed in 1986, the mining continued under Grace’s management, with the help of Bob Hall and Lee Louden, both master bead makers, searching for the illusive vivid green turquoise.
