This sterling silver bracelet has been cut into three tines on the upper middle section with the sides retaining their solid shape to the ends of the bracelet. Each tine is stamped with individual rain clouds and rain. This same design continues down the center of the bracelet sides. Each end of the bracelet has a whirling logs design. A beautiful oval green turquoise stone with a faint copper matrix sits at the center of the bracelet. The whirling logs design would be an indication that the bracelet pre-dates the 1930s.
Condition: excellent condition
Provenance: from the collection of a gentleman from Georgia
