One of a Kind piece

Navajo bracelet handcrafted with the Tufa Cast technique. 

Tufa Cast is one of the oldest process used by the Navajos:

The artist takes a mold made of volcanic stone (tufa) and divises it in two parts. In the first part, he carves a design of his choice, melts silver in, and tightly covers it with the second part of the mold. On this bracelet we can clearly see the arrows, symbol of protection.

Once the silver is hard, the mold eventually breaks, making this piece a unique item. This technique creates a jewel of traditionnal rough aspect on which we can clearly see the beautiful lumps of tufa stone. 

Wrist size (in inches): 7"
Width (in mm): 6mm 

This bracelet is in sterling silver. 

Proudly handmade in USA.
