This listing is for a handcrafted Navajo cuff bracelet made of sterling silver, turquoise, and mother of pearl. This is a rather rare and older Lee family piece. It is in excellent vintage condition. The face features 3 large rectangular sections with impeccable inlay of blue green spiderweb turquoise and mother of pearl. The matrixes in the turquoise have a large range of color hues including, red, brown, beige, and black while the mother of pearl has its classic iridescent sheen. The two stones contrasting beautifully next to each other make for a lovely piece. Loosely twisted rope borders the edges of the inlaid sections to finish off the design. The cuff graduates in size and is made from a sturdy double silver shank cuff. The inside is flattened to lay on the wrist while the front is rounded for eye appeal. The two shanks come together at each end forming a point that has been smoothed and rounded for easy accessibility.
