This listing is for a vintage Navajo cuff bracelet, handcrafted by an unidentified Artist of the Navajo Guild. The bracelet was crafted with Sterling Silver and Natural Turquoise. This vintage cuff boasts nine large turquoise gem stones lined over a triple shank of sterling silver. Each stone slightly protrudes from a tall bezel showing off beautiful pastel shades of blue green with natural matrix inclusions and hints of shimmery pyrite. They sit tight and secure with no damage and have a satin polished finish. Large silver droplets accompany the stones as they rest over a sturdy triple shank of solid silver. The outer shanks have a smooth rounded finish while the center shank is made from twisted rope. The cuff is solid, sturdy, and pleasingly comfortable when worn on the correct sized wrist. A sterling stamp is present at each inner end cap along with the signature horned moon hallmark used by the Navajo Guild. The 10th photo of this listing shows page 23 of Billie Hougart’s 4th edition book of Native American hallmarks.
