BA1641 turquoise inlay Harpo ring

Square Navajo ring in sterling silver, inlaid with White Water (Mexique) turquoise.

Inlay is a Native American jewelry-making process in which real stones (most often turquoise, coral, mother-of-pearl and jet) are cut and assembled by hand to create a geometric pattern. The whole is polished to a smooth, elegant finish. 

Inlay is a Zuni jewelry process, but here it is masterfully executed by a Navajo silversmith. This ring is a fine example of “channel inlay”, an inlay technique in which the stones are compartmentalized by thin silver bars.

The turquoise is set in a hand-chased setting with fine cutting details, and the ring is embossed with small oxidized Natives motifs that frame the turquoise and further enhance its beauty.

Inlay dimensions (L x W): 1.3cm x 1.3cm

(0.1/2 inch x 0.1/2 inch)

This ring is in sterling silver.

Proudly Navajo handmade in the USA.
