BA1648 turquoise inlay and silver Harpo

Stunning Navajo ring

This magnificent sterling silver Navajo ring is inlaid with Kingman (Arizona) turquoise.

Inlay is a Native jewelry-making process, mastered by the Zuni tribe, but here carefully crafted by a Navajo silversmith: genuine gemstones, are cut and assembled by hand to create a geometric pattern. The whole is polished to a smooth, elegant finish.

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

Width: 0.8cm
(0.1/4 inch)

This ring is in sterling silver.

Proudly Navajo handmade in the USA.
