Stunning Navajo ring

This sterling silver ring is inlaid with beautiful Damale turquoise (Nevada), Sleeping Beauty turquoise (Arizona) and black-jet.

Inlay is a Native jewelry-making process, mastered by the Zuni tribe, but here carefully crafted by a Navajo silversmith: genuine gemstones (here two turquoises from the southwestern United States with very different shades and matrices, combined with black-jet, known for its deep black color), are cut and assembled by hand to create a geometric pattern. The whole is polished to a smooth, elegant finish.

This type of marquetry is called "channel inlay" and can be recognized by the fine silver bars that compartmentalize the stones.
