HUGE OLD Vintage Navajo Sterling Silver Turquoise Coral Inlay Ring HEAVY & RARE
This listing is for a n older vintage Navajo ring made from sterling silver , turquoise, coral, and gold lip mother of pearl. This handcrafted Navajo ring is heavy and very unique!! Weighing in at 22 grams, this ring was created to be SEEN and make a STATEMENT! The ring was made with an extremely thick rectangular face and raised gem stone inlays including, turquoise, Mediterranean coral, and gold-lip mother of pearl. The most unlikely stone used in this piece is the GLMOP. Typically white mother of pearl is used, so in a sense this piece is somewhat rare. The GLMOP has a nice yellowish gold hue with an iridescent shiny finish. The four turquoise inlays look to be of gem grade quality with deep ocean blue hues and spotty matrixes, while the centered coral shows off soft red tones and natural veining. The stones have been hand filed and polished to a high gloss shine and sit raised inside hollowed out squares below. All nine gemstones are in perfect condition. Finishing the design are six large silver droplets resting at the North and South ends of the face with deep hand stampings of classic sunburst designs. The band is made with two thick shanks fused together at the bottom center. The forged shanks split apart as they reach the back of the ring face. The two shanks are slightly offset from one other but still have a good round shape and wears comfortably on the finger. This Navajo made piece will make a great addition to your existing Native American collection or it could be the the perfect piece to start one. Cherish and enjoy this ring for now…. And hand it down to loved ones in the future. Size – 9.5. Weight – 22 Grams. Face of Ring Measures – 1-1/4 long by 7/8 wide and just over 1/4 thick including the raised stones….
