Category: Jewelry | Posted by | Fri, Jul 1st 2016, 4:38pm
Navajo jewelers were skilled in using elegant silver settings to highlight the beauty of turquoise stones. This cluster ring has eight high grade turquoise stones surrounding a larger middle stone. The depth and color of the stones are the focal points of the ring. The unknown Navajo artist has set these stones in perfectly crafted saw-tooth bezels with a tiny silver drop between each stone. Between the center stone and the surrounding stones is a fine twisted silver wire. The uniqueness of each individual stone shines through as a result of the well-designed silver setting. The Southwest Indian Jewelry ring is probably from the 1940s era.
