Zuni Cactus Flower bracelet made of Sleeping Beauty turquoises (Arizona) set on sterling silver.

This beautiful bracelet, emblematic of Zuni jewelry, is made using a technique called "Needle Point". This process is famous for the precision needed to hand-carved the turquoise stones in tiny drop shapes. Imagine the amount of work behind each of these tiny turquoises. Each stone is then set in a serrated setting, created with equal precision and meticulousness. 

These Cactus Flowers are soldered on a sterling silver shank, composed of two silver branches joined into one, creating an openwork effect on the wrist.
