RARE Vintage Navajo Sterling Silver Turquoise Micro Inlay Ring HIGHLY DETAILED
This listing is for a vintage handcrafted Navajo ring, made of sterling silver, turquoise, and mother of pearl. This vintage Navajo ring is a gorgeous example of flush inlay work using silver channels. The ring face has a long rectangular shape and is made with a very thick bed of silver. To the East and West of the face are long turquoise inlays. They actually sit raised off the sides of the face, and not the top. At the center of the ring a raised bezel holds tiny square inlays of turquoise and mother of pearl with silver channels running between them. The stones and channels running between them are perfectly flush and smooth to the touch as they sit slightly raised in the bezel. The turquoise portrays a rich sky blue color hue while the mother of pearl features its signature iridescent sheen. All of the inlays are in perfect condition with no chips or cracks. Truly a great statement piece in mint condition. The back of the ring carries a wide sturdy band bordered on each side by twisted rope. The band is in perfect round wearable shape, with no give…. A very well made solid piece. This ring is waiting to be cherished and enjoyed for now…. And of course handed down to loved ones in the future. A lovely addition to any collection of fine Native American jewelry…. Or the perfect piece to start one! Weight – 17 Grams.
