This sturdy bracelet features a row of seven rectangular turquoise gemstones set on a three-wire silver foundation. Designed for a wrist size of 7-¼, the stones gradually decrease in size, tapering outward from the central gemstone for a balanced and graceful aesthetic.

The turquoise, likely sourced from the renowned Kingman mines, showcases beautiful shades of blue-green with striking dark veins, inclusions, and occasional flecks of pyrite, adding depth and character to each stone. Each gemstone is framed in a silver bezel surrounded by intricately twisted silver wire, enhancing the craftsmanship and detail. The bracelet's silver wires are securely capped at each end, providing both durability and a polished finish.
